Millipede CorTen Bridge The Bowie Bridge is equipped with a continuous fencing system of criss-crossed balusters uninterrupted by posts, which creates a fascinating image. The stainless, CorTen or powder coated steel balusters have varying diameters, resulting in a particularly strong and rigid fence. A robust rounded hardwood handrail frames the fencing and is pleasant to the touch. For the bridge depicted in Hengelo (NL), special standing seats have been designed in the middle. The Bowie Bridge is available in a slightly arched or fl at version. The Nautic fence of the Shortline Nautic Bridge consists of curved, galvanized, CorTen or RAL powder coated steel balusters with various continuous stainless steel cables and tensioners. The curved design and height of 110 cm makes these fences particularly diffi cult to climb over. In Örebro (SE), a red 12-metre Shortline Nautic Bridge was installed as a connection between a park and a new housing estate. By extending the balusters on the banks, the bridge becomes visually longer and even more beautiful. Branches Bridge Bowie Bridge The Crossline CorTen Bridge is a fl at bridge with segmented fencing. Partly due to the segmented fencing frames, the bridge has a sophisticated ‘natural chic’ look. The sturdy frames are made from CorTen steel and topped with a hardwood railing. The infi ll of the fence modules is available in horizontal stainless steel cables or criss-crossed stainless steel balusters. Lighting can be placed underneath the railing for a subtle effect. In Molenveld, Herent (BE), a new housing estate is interwoven with a park-like landscape with meandering water. The Crossline Bridge is part of a coherent Streetlife design that also includes Rough&Ready Tree Isles and Rough&Ready Bollards. Ona Bridge Country Bridge High The ONA Bridge is the newest bridge in this year’s Streetlife collection. A beautiful architectural element that can be fi tted with various types of decking, the bridge features a continuous balustrade with a dynamic graphic design that covers the entire height of the structure. The balustrade is created from CorTen or powder coated steel strips and topped with a hardwood handrail.
