Another significant project is the reinforcement of the Imam Khomeini (RA) - Sattar Khan bridge, which has a history of 30 years. This bridge, with special technical specifications including a length of 1600 meters and a width of 35 meters, is currently undergoing renovation. In this project, seismic retrofitting of 280 columns (in 70 rows of 4) with a concrete and metal composite is underway according to the scheduled plan.
The CEO of the Technical and Engineering Consulting Organization of Tehran also highlighted the importance of these projects in reducing earthquake risks, adding: "Given Tehran's geographical location and natural hazards, these projects can play a significant role in protecting the lives and property of citizens."
Consequences of Project Implementation
Implementing these projects not only helps improve the safety of structures but also, considering the increase in traffic and the need for resilient infrastructure, will enhance the quality of life for citizens. According to Amani, these actions align with the long-term plans of the Tehran municipality to improve urban infrastructure and achieve greater safety against natural disasters.
Ultimately, the managers present during this visit emphasized that the implementation of these projects will continue with seriousness, and we will soon witness positive changes in the structure of the capital's bridges. These actions will have an impact not only on a macro level but also in the daily lives of citizens.
