Show Me the Savings!

This article provides an overview of the prefabricated bridge market. Prefabricated bridges are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to traditional construction because they are safer to install, quality-controlled, less expensive and accommodate a faster construction schedule. New technologies, computer-assisted manufacturing improvements, industry marketing, and word of mouth from satisfied clients are responsible for heightening the success of this market.
