Johnson Nature Preserve Trail Bridge
Johnson Nature Preserve is in a northeast suburb of Cincinnati that has a beautiful walking trail through the park.
Cincinnati, OH
Clermont County has worked with Axcess to install multiple bridges in their park district so when the need for a bridge arose at Shor Park, Axcess was ready to help. Shor Park has a beautiful walking trail that many people in the surrounding neighborhoods use, however the creek frequently floods and blocks access to a majority of the trail. Within a week, the whole bridge was able to be installed and used by the park visitors and access to the trail is available no matter the conditions of the creek.
Axcess designed a concrete free foundation with the use of helical piles and FRP C-channel that were directly bolted to the weathering steel beams. The project was able to be done by a crew of 5 people and only one mini excavator was needed on site for the whole project. Clermont Park District went on to add approach walls for the walkway giving the whole project a wonderful look in a short time frame.
BRIDGE SPAN: 30 feet
BRIDGE WIDTH: 8 feet
BRIDGE WEIGHT: 4,000 lbs

There are few things more rewarding than how one seemingly simple idea can change everything.
See how a local park district in Ohio used a truss bridge and solid surface fiberglass decking to replace a deteriorated wooden bridge.
A beautiful custom-designed pedestrian bridge supports the foundation’s mission of bringing educational opportunities to kids throughout the Cincinnati region.
