The bearings were then greased and closed again. In the third stage, the sidewalks in the steel bridge area were replaced. Also the existing 1.00 m high aluminum railings without ropes were replaced with 1.20 m high steel railings with ropes in order to satisfy current safety codes. The old rubber seals on the expansion joints were also replaced. A report in 2006 concluded that the bridge was no longer be repairable and could only be used until 2015 It also recommended that the bridge be inspected on a quarterly basis (normally bridges in Germany undergo a simple review every three years and a major review every six years). A replacement for the Schiersteiner bridge is being planned. Because of the poor condition of the structure, the speed limit was reduced from 100 km/h to 80 km/h in late 2006 to reduce vibrations on the bridge. In spring 2007, it was again lowered to 60 km/h, between the Mombach and Äppelallee interchanges. Since that time, the same speed limit has been applied to the entire bridge. Since September 19, 2008, the speed limit is monitored by a fixed speed cameras on the southbound side and by frequent mobile radar stations on the other. On February 10, 2015 the bridge was closed from all traffic until further notice after a supporting pillar had been found to have developed a tilt leaving a portion of the bridge hanging without adequate support. The bridge was reopened for cars up to 3.5 tons on May 25, 2015. The speed limit was further reduced to 40 km/h. Since the November 7th 2015 even lorries up to 40t can use the bridge again.
