Sawbridge (Warwickshire) replacement bridge
A timber pedestrian bridge over the River Leam at Sawbridge has been closed since 2018 due to a decaying structure.
This has recently been replaced with a long-life recycled plastic Bison bridge.
Bridge specification:
- What3words location - ///calculate.forks.flip
- Pedestrian Bridge, 1.2mtr deck width x 10mtr span
- Recycled plastic parapets and deck
- Galvanised steel structural beams mounted on interlocking concrete block structure
- Charnwood pedestrian gates x 2
Our install team removed the failed timber bridge structure, created abutments using precast interlocking concrete blocks and installed the new 10 metre bridge.
Galvanised pedestrian gates with self-closing hinges were installed at both ends of the bridge.
