A temporary bridge, or portable bridge, has a number of applications in various industries. These bridge solutions are used for contractors, builders and workers to access a job site that would otherwise be inaccessible. Temporary bridges can be made to preset specifications and either be assembled on the jobsite, or can be delivered already intact for quick installation and use.
Whenever terrain makes it difficult, impossible or expensive to access a needed site, installing a temporary bridge can be the most cost-effective solution. Whether it is transporting people safely across water or unstable ground, or getting machinery to an inaccessible construction site, renting a customized bridge is the most cost effective and safe solution.
Builders and construction contracting companies use temporary bridges more than any other industry. Perhaps a job or construction site is to be started in an area that is bordered by a stream or creek, or the site is blocked by terrain that will cause issues for transporting equipment and building materials. This is where a portable bridge offers ultimate convenience. The contractor can just order the bridge and then have it installed onsite so the project can be started without delay. When the building is fully constructed, the bridge contracting company simply picks it up and removes it from the job site.
A temporary bridge is also commonly used to span a body of water over which a permanent bridge is being erected. The rental bridge can be installed right next to the area where the permanent construction is being added and can act as a platform for workers and equipment to access the permanent installation site. It can also be used for vehicle and foot traffic until the permanent bridge is in place. This is a highly common use for a temporary bridge installation.
Many electric companies make use of temporary bridges to access downed power lines in remote areas. They can also easily transport new or replacement power lines to areas that would otherwise be inaccessible. This often happens in flood zones, or in marshy areas that were dry when the original lines were installed.
Temporary bridges can also help water utilities and the petroleum industry access underground lines and transmission pipes in which the terrain or accessibility has changed.
Small businesses or individuals can also rent temporary pedestrian bridges for special events such as weddings or parties, as well as for weather related or other emergencies.
However, when budgets are tight, businesses are the primary user of temporary bridges. Project delays can cost thousands or even millions of dollars; a temporary bridge can be more cost effective than a permanent bridge, and strong enough to do a long term job. All contractors seek new and innovative ways to cut costs and increase efficiency of a project.
A movable bridge is a cost effective solution to many business and personal needs. They are also a safe solution when the alternative is to put workers on dangerous or unstable ground.
