Ornamental Rustic Bridge at Lightwoods Park - ref 4200

CTS Bridges were originally contacted in 2014 by Sandwell Council who had a historic photograph c1925 of a bridge in Lightwood Park, West Midlands.  They asked if CTS could replicate the style of the historic bridge whilst ensuring it met with current design standards.

 

CTS Bridges liaised with the customer and the contractor to develop the style of the bridge and softwood timber was chosen as the best material to keep the new bridge within budget.

The intricate pattern on the parapet was manufactured to match to the original photograph.

However with health and safety in mind, CTS's Hi-Grip Excel non slip decking was used on the bridge deck as this provided a safe walking surface for the general public.
