Hungarian bridge wins prestigeous award! – Photos, Videos HERE!
Change language:
The bridge in question is the Mosoni Duna Bridge, realised by the Hódút construction company. It is not only famous for its remarkably good looks but also for the special push technology used as well as for keeping in line with the rather tight schedule – reports magyarepitok.hu.
The bridge is located on main road 813 bypassing the city of Győr. The Tibor Klatsmányi Bridge – named after an engineer and bridge constructor – was recently awarded the prestigious Tierney Clark Award.
The award, named after the designer of the Chain Bridge, was founded in 2000. This year, it was awarded to the investor company NIF Zrt., the designers, Pont-Terv Zrt. and Főber Zrt., and the constructor Hódút Kft together.

The award ceremony took place this Monday, at the Ceremonial Hall of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.
Reasons for the bridge’s win
The bridge was built along with the third phase of the main road 813, with the contribution of the Strabarg and Hódút companies. It is the bridge with the 5th biggest opening. Traffic was finally allowed this March, on the last section of the bypassing route.
The appraising committee made their decision based on 3 criteria:
- the aesthetics of the bridge
- the special push technology used during the construction of the bridge
- succeeding in keeping in line with a rather tight schedule.
A képen látható Dezső Zsigmond nem vett részt a híd tervezésében és építésében. A híd díját Mátyássy László (főtervező, Pont-Terv Zrt) vette át a résztvevők képviseletében, akiknek ezúton is gratulálunk! A generálkivitelező a Hódút Kft volt.
Dezső Zsigmond shown on the picture did not take part in the design and construction of the bridge. The prize for the bridge was accepted by László Mátyássy (chief designer, Pont-Terv Ltd) in the name of the participants. The general contractor was Hódút Ltd. Congratulations, this way as well!
