Case Study:
Cycle Trail Swing Bridge
“I was surprised that the price of FRP was not significantly more than timber decking. There are savings in installation costs and FRP removes the need for plastic or steel mesh. Factoring in lower maintenance costs and excellent skid resistance, FRP is our preferred product for cycle trail bridge decks.”
– Client
Challenge
The deteriorating timber on a swing bridge was becoming hazardous for cyclists and pedestrians, with the wood rotten and warped from moisture. Frequent maintenance was required, which involved costly replacements. The client needed a more reliable, long-lasting solution to ensure the bridge remained safe and functional.
Solution
We recommended our FRP mini mesh grating to replace the timber decking. Our mini mesh grating features an anti-slip grit surface, significantly improving slip resistance for cyclists and pedestrians. Non-corrosive FRP grating will not deteriorate due to moisture in damp environments.
Outcome
Installing our FRP mini mesh grating transformed the swing bridge into a safer and more reliable crossing. The enhanced slip resistance improves all users’ safety, and the grating’s durability ensures reduced maintenance costs, making this bridge functional and safe in the long term.
