Above: This is one of two bridges supplied to a water and sewage provider in Scotland, UK, used for reservoir valve access. These bridges replaced steel footbridges which, due to the challenging environment of Scotland, were experiencing unwarranted aesthetic and safety concerns. The water and sewage provider wanted a cost e ective and durable structural alternative to steel. Both bridges were built to ensure corrosion resistance and structural durability using EXTREN® structural tubes, angles, and plates. SAFPLANK® fiberglass planking with an epoxy, anti-skid surface was used as a long-lasting pedestrian flooring solution.
