FRP Bridge Deck Replacement Cycle Bridge and Pedestrian Bridge

The old pedestrian bridge, which was also used as a cycle bridge, near the “Englischen Garten” in Amberg was in dire need of replacement. Weather, age and heavy use had rendered the old bridge unsafe. With the installation of an FRP Bridge Deck, the city of Amberg opted for a sustainable replacement. Not only was the replacement FRP Bridge Deck mounted on the old steel structure; the bridge was also anchored into the ground. As such, the FRP Bridge Deck comfortably remains on the steel structure, even during high water and flooding. Moreover, the bridge is wider than the old bridge, allowing pedestrians and cyclists to pass each other safely.
