NEW FOOTBRIDGE IN SEATOWN, CULLEN REQUIRES PROTECTIVE SYSTEM FOR HARSH ENVIRONMENTS DUE TO NORTH SEA LOCATION: CTS Bridges supply their footbridges with a variety of high quality protective finishes depending on the bridge location. But for a recent bridge installation in Cullen, Morayshire the requirement was for a paint system to suit a harsh environment due to its exposure to the North Sea. Vierendeel Truss cycleway bridge at Cullen, Morayshire A new cycle/footbridge was recently installed by CTS Bridges in the town of Cullen, Morayshire. The new bridge replaces an old concrete structure built in the 1930’s which was in very poor condition. The new bridge forms part of the Moray Coast Trail and is 3m wide to accommodate both cyclists and pedestrians on what is one of the busiest footbridges in the area due to its proximity to the beach car park and golf club. Due to its location next to the North Sea a Series 1900 paint specification for difficult access was used which will give the bridge a life to first major maintenance of 20 years. The paint system comprises of: Blast clean to SA3 Standard 1 coat HB Epoxy Zinc Rich Primer Dpt Item 109 –- MDft 50 microns 2 coats HB Epoxy MIO Dpt Item 112 – MDFT 125 microns/coat 1 coat Polyurethane Finish Dpt Item 169 – 870 – MDFT 50 microns Top coat colour – Power Blue BS4800 20C33.
