The Erazm Bridge Consortium is a consortium of among other organisations, the Alriggian Republic, the Jingdaoese Empire and the Holy Ralgon Empire. The consortium intends to extend the Imperial Autobahn 1 over sea towards the old territory of Alrig, which is seeing new development.
Alriggian participation
Jingdaoese participation
The Jingdaoese Imperial Palace is the greatest financial supporter of the project, although no transparency is offered concerning how much Jingdao actually pays. The Jingdaoese interest in the bridge lies both in the Alriggian-Jingdaoese trade relations which are expected to improve. Another motivation for Jingdao is the idea that a strong Alrig counters the influence of the Florian Republic.
Ralgonese participation
Private partners
The Alriggian transport companies OldSport and TransGreen are logistic partners of the consortium. OldSport provides building materials to construction taking place from the west side of the bridge, which departs from the developed side of the bay. TransGreen brings building materials to the east side of the bay, where infrastructure is less reliable.
International reactions
Raspur Pact: Although not officially condemning the Erazm Bridge project, nor publicly expressing concern, the Permanent Commission of the Pact did nonetheless feel obliged to monitor the planned construction programme - lest doubts regarding the feasibility of the bridge prove to be well founded and the debris shed by any resultant collapse create a navigation hazard for merchantmen of the trade fleets plying the route from Arak to Port Farrar.
