This project involved repurposing a railroad bridge with FRP decking and custom railing at the end of the bike and hike trail system in the town of Delphi, Indiana.
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.

This project involved repurposing a railroad bridge with FRP decking and custom railing at the end of the bike and hike trail system in the town of Delphi, Indiana.
See how a local park district in Ohio used a truss bridge and solid surface fiberglass decking to replace a deteriorated wooden bridge.
There are few things more rewarding than how one seemingly simple idea can change everything.
This bridge spans a creek that frequently floods and would block the community from being able to access most of the walking trails.
A network of urban trails expands across a local creek thanks to special co-fabricated weathering steel beams and aluminum railings.
