Montgomery Park is an urban park in a northeast suburb of Cincinnati. The existing bridge was in desperate need of replacement based on the deterioration of the wood. Axcess was contracted to design a wider, higher capacity bridge that would allow maintenance equipment to cross the bridge.
Axcess designed a structure that was able to reuse the existing foundations with state of the art materials. The bridge consisted of weathering steel beams for the structural supports, fiberglass decking that is rated for a 10,000 lb vehicle and an aluminum railing system. This combination of building materials should not require any maintenance for the next 25 years. The onsite work to demolition the existing bridge and install the new bridge was completed in three days.

A beautiful custom-designed pedestrian bridge supports the foundation’s mission of bringing educational opportunities to kids throughout the Cincinnati region.
The Jackson Grant community has been working on an expansive walking path for the past several years as it continues to build homes in the development.
This bridge spans a creek that frequently floods and would block the community from being able to access most of the walking trails.
There are few things more rewarding than how one seemingly simple idea can change everything.
