A mobile passenger boarding bridge.The bridge construction has a fixed entrance tunnel from the terminal to the rear gantry and two longitudinal tunnels along the riverside. The tunnels have ‘climalit’ glass. The gantry is designed to be electromechanically adjustable. A telescopic boarding pod covered platform stretches from the front movable cabin to provide direct access to the cruise vessel entrance. The bridge has two independent structures to support the tunnels and are equipped with an electromechanical drive system in order to move the construction along the wharf.
