Phillips Park Bridge Replacement
Greene County, OH
Greene County, OH
In 2012, flooding and erosion forced the Greene County Parks to replace a wooden bridge that connects Rotary Park, Philips Park, and the Beavercreek Wetlands Preserve. The Park Service contracted Axcess to design a permanent solution for this location that would not need to be replaced in the future. Project requirements included:
To meet these requirements, Axcess designed a weathering steel truss bridge with a solid surface fiberglass deck. The design work included raising the bridge’s elevation so it sat above the flood plain, improving access and reducing water damage. This maintenance-free solution saves on upkeep costs for the Park Service and will last for years to come.
BRIDGE SPAN: 45 feet
BRIDGE WIDTH: 6 feet
BRIDGE WEIGHT: 12,000 lb

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.
A network of urban trails expands across a local creek thanks to special co-fabricated weathering steel beams and aluminum railings.
With repairs and improved stability, a homeowner’s bridge will be able to withstand the forces of flooding water and debris for years to come.
