The first sections of the arch were cast in situ with a fixed formwork, then with the help of the equipment supplied by FPT, the chariot of the launch has been progressively placed in the correct position for starting casting of individual sections in progress.
Thanks to the hydraulic system FPT the wagon has been placed with a few maneuvers.
