We understand the complexities and constraints of working in the local government sector and the procurement process that councils must follow. Bridge It NZ will help you cater for all mobility needs and multiple transport modes while also balancing environmental concerns and long-term plans and budgets.
Our bespoke, customised approach means your goals are always front-of-mind and your bridge or boardwalk will be safe, robust and fit-for-purpose. We expressly avoid over-engineering to keep costs down and provide innovative ideas and solutions for tricky sites. Our bridge materials and manufacturing process will minimise your project’s carbon footprint, and we frequently work with iwi, community groups, civil contractors, environmental consultants and other stakeholders to achieve successful outcomes.
We know bridge construction inside and out, including all the rules and regulations. We’ll take care of every aspect – leave it to us.
Our bridges are custom built to suit your needs and multiple transport modes. They’ll safely cater for all ages and abilities and will withstand a 1-in-50 year flood at a minimum (and often double that).
Protect natural waterways and install a low carbon emissions solution to help support mode shift. Our bridges are built to last and require minimal maintenance.
We provide seamless, tailored solutions for district and regional councils, whether you need cost-effective public infrastructure, budget estimates, or full project management. From designing compliant bridges to managing consents and regulations, our comprehensive support ensures efficient, durable, and attractive solutions that enhance public access and add long-term value to your community.
Quicker than you think! In as little as five months you could have a new bridge in place to help improve connectivity and access in your community. Our bridge building timeline answers all your questions so you can plan ahead.

Discover what we do best, and why councils across New Zealand choose to work with us.
Communities often form strong attachments to local landmarks and that was certainly the case in Matua, Tauranga. Residents loved the stone arched footbridge that had sat on their foreshore for decades. But time and coastal erosion was taking its toll.
Improving pedestrian access has been a long-held dream of the Kaiwaka community. SH1 cuts the historic Northland settlement in half, with thousands of cars and heavy haulage trucks making the road difficult and dangerous to cross in the centre of town.
We are delighted to be recognised for our two pedestrian bridges that form part of New Zealand's largest urban wetland redevelopment, the Kopurererua Valley.

We have many different options to help improve access within your community and cater for pedestrians, cyclists, scooters, wheelchairs and other mobility users. Our bridges and boardwalks are sympathetic to the site and will aesthetically blend into your environment.
A well-designed bridge or boardwalk is also a cost-effective investment. They are built to last and withstand extreme weather, require less ongoing maintenance, are an environmentally-sensitive solution and can be installed year-round. Over-engineering a solution can be costly but under-engineering one creates a safety and compliance risk. We can help you choose the right materials and design to meet your exact needs.
