Bridges & Culverts

Keeping bridges and culverts safe, open and funded

Ageing bridges and culverts carry more load than they were ever designed for. We help asset owners understand what they have, what it can carry and what to do next, with renewal options that are costed, staged and ready to take to a funding decision.

  • Heavy vehicle and over-size over-mass route evaluations
  • Bridge and culvert inspections and condition assessment
  • Culvert deficiency registers, prioritisation and cost-to-fix estimates
  • Renewal, relining and replacement options reports
  • Scour, outlet protection and energy dissipation design
  • Minor bridge and culvert design
  • Rehabilitation and strengthening design
