Our Capabilities

Innovative Temporary Access Solutions

At Spencer Bridge Engineering, we design and deliver innovative temporary access solutions that enable safe, efficient working on complex bridge structures across the UK. Working in high-risk, operational environments, we provide engineered access systems that support inspection, maintenance and refurbishment works while maintaining safety, performance and programme certainty.

EXCLUSIVE PARTNERS OF AEROTRUSS™

As exclusive partners of AeroTruss™, we are able to offer clients access to one of the most advanced modular access systems available for bridge and structural maintenance. AeroTruss™ is a lightweight, high-strength aluminium maintenance traveller system that can be configured to suit virtually any bridge geometry, providing safe, reliable access for inspection, repair, painting and refurbishment works.

Designed for both temporary and permanent applications, the system offers significant advantages over traditional access methods, including rapid deployment, reduced operational disruption and enhanced safety performance – Find out more.

Bridge structures present unique access challenges, including working at height, over water, and within constrained or live environments. Through early engagement, we develop tailored strategies that identify constraints and deliver safe, controlled access to all areas of a structure, minimise disruption to road, rail or marine operations, integrate seamlessly with project sequencing and improve efficiency in inspection and construction delivery.

All of our temporary access systems are fully engineered to be compliant with relevant standards and are designed for safe installation, use and dismantling. We ensure risks to operatives and the public are minimised through rigorous planning, robust methodology and controlled execution, fully integrated into our wider project safety approach.

Our multi-disciplinary in-house capability spans civil, structural and mechanical engineering alongside specialist access design and delivery.

Our multi-disciplinary in-house capability spans civil, structural and mechanical engineering alongside specialist access design and delivery. This enables us to create bespoke solutions for even the most complex structures, combining innovation with practical buildability to improve efficiency, reduce programme risk and support safe, effective project outcomes.

Our temporary access capabilities are built around tailored design and engineering, combining underdeck gantry systems, modular platforms and rope access solutions to suit each project’s needs. We also deliver temporary works design and installation, along with access for inspection, maintenance and refurbishment, including the installation and removal of specialist systems. By integrating access planning into the wider project process, we help open up complex structures while supporting safe, efficient and successful delivery.
