Bridge Detailed for Parks & Recreation
Standard Wheeler bridges can be detailed for applications specific to your park or recreation area. Our bridge kits can be custom-designed to include a wide range of accessories to fit your needs.
Boardwalks
Boardwalks provide access through sensitive environments. Their size and scope can be adjusted based on the intended use. Pedestrian-only applications provide more flexibility of alignment compared to regional trails requiring access for emergency and maintenance vehicles.
Platforms
Platforms offer expanded viewing and fishing opportunities, especially for those with mobility restrictions. They can be mounted into hillsides or cantilevered over water to bring visitors into the environment.
Outlooks
Outlooks provide areas for resting or viewing the landscape outside the main travel lane. These additions are available under certain span and loading conditions for most bridge configurations.
