Bridge Equipment

Bridge equipment refers to the hardware and devices used to control, monitor, and operate a bridge's various functions. This includes features like traffic control systems, safety barriers, sensors to detect vehicle or vessel movements, and electronic communication systems. The equipment ensures the smooth, safe, and efficient movement of vehicles, pedestrians, and ships, especially for movable bridges that lift or swing open. Properly maintained bridge equipment is vital for safety, reliability, and effective traffic management across waterways and roadways.
