Quickly And Easily Gain Access to Your Job Site
Mustang Extreme’s engineer-rated, prefabricated temporary bridges are designed to safely support heavy-duty vehicles and equipment over stream beds, waterways, and channel crossings, helping you quickly reach hard-to-access job sites in just a few hours. In addition to providing reliable job site access, our prefabricated bridges can be used to improve load ratings of existing bridges.
Temporary access bridges are an ideal solution because they have little environmental impact and cause minimal disruption to surrounding areas. They can be installed with limited soil backfill, reducing the effects on stream beds and water quality, while helping to prevent soil erosion and sedimentation.
Save on labor and project costs with rapid deploying, temporary bridges:
- Engineer-rated to 45-ton and 94-ton capacities
- Accommodates HL-93 requirements and DOT standards
- Easily skidded into place with an excavator or lifted into place with a crane
- Quick to install and dismantle, causing minimal disruption to work zones and high traffic areas
- Efficient to transport, reducing freight costs
