Loveland, OH
The City of Loveland, Ohio was expanding its network of walking trails near the downtown area and needed a pedestrian bridge across O’Bannon Creek. This urban trail expansion project had some unique requirements:
Axcess designed a bridge without trusses that combined a fiberglass deck with co-fabricated weathering steel beams and an aluminum railing. This design expanded the bridge to 50 feet in length, which is longer than typical bridge spans for a non-truss structure. This maintenance-free solution also ensures the City will have minimal upkeep and maintenance requirements for the life of the bridge.
BRIDGE SPAN: 50 feet
BRIDGE WIDTH: 7.7 feet
BRIDGE WEIGHT: 22,000 lb

The first of multiple projects that Axcess and Clermont County Parks have been able to work together on installing.
Fiberglass decking is more durable than treated lumber and is maintenance free. See how we used it for a bridge deck at a national park. a national park.
