- The outcomes of this paper have been adopted by Highways England to support a bulk departure from their Bridge Assessment Standards, saving them millions of pounds in unnecessary interventions. Structures Manager South, Highway’s England, stated “a full bridge replacement of simple single span ones can cost a few million pounds, strengthening with associated road closures can easily reach £1million, and load mitigation (reduced load rating for heavier vehicles) or monitoring/propping can cost several hundred thousands of pounds.” “Approximately 100 bridges have been, or will be, assessed for capacity using those principles”.
