Light bridge light-weight easy-deployable bridge for road transport vehicles
In LIGHT BRIDGE we will develop, test and subsequently market a unique light-weight, easily deployable and adaptive bridge for road transport vehicles (hereafter termed “light-bridge”). The light-bridge will facilitate accelerated bridging operations needed in many situations in road transport in zones under hazard scenarios. It will be also useful for temporary bridging in locations requiring rapid transport restoration due to accidents or repair of road infrastructure.

Puente ultraligero de despliegue rápido
The project “Ultralight Bridge for Rapid Deployment” has been valued by the CDTI as one of the best proposals submitted to the 2016 Neotec Program, within the infrastructure / construction sector. PSTech will receive financing of € 169,575 during 2017 and 2018. The NEOTEC Program grants finance the start-up of new business projects that require the use of technologies or knowledge developed from the research activity, in which the business strategy base in the development of technology.
