Hundreds of thousands of excited fans, workers, and families descended upon Las Vegas for the Formula One Race this year. With two spanning Flamingo Road on the Las Vegas Strip, three temporary bridges were erected for the ease of moving both spectators and vehicles through the hustle and bustle of excitement. A lack of people moving overpasses in Las Vegas, temporary bridges became the obvious solution. With a tight construction timeline, modular bridge components allow for quick, easy and efficient construction.
Four-lane temporary bridges are being built over the racetrack for emergency and other vehicles, buses and pedestrians. The bridges, similar to overpasses, are built to highway standards.
Three modular bridges provide access to emergency vehicles, guests, employees, tourists and vehicles, connecting over 20,000 hotel rooms to the circuit. Constructed in seven segments, the longest bridge spans 760 feet along the famous Flamingo Road. The modular bridges were chosen for this project as they are quick and easy to put together, efficient and provide a safe method of traffic control. Hot-dip galvanizing is the preferred coating for modular steel pieces for increased life cycle, corrosion resistance and durability. On the bridge decking, an anti-slip epoxy aggregate coating is applied for traction control to both vehicles and pedestrians.
