pedestrian infrastructure
World-class Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) boardwalks & bridges for pedestrian traffic
Wagners CFT Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) profiles have been used to construct pedestrian bridges and boardwalks around the world from Jan Juc Stairs on the cliff face of Torquay Beach in Victoria, Australia to the Jubail Island mangrove boardwalk in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and the Ocala Boardwalk through Pine Oaks Wetland in Florida, United States of America.
So, if you are an Asset Owner looking to maximise budgets and reduce costs associated with maintenance, inspection and infrastructure replacement for pedestrian boardwalks and bridges, request a project deep dive with Wagners CFT for your next project. Meanwhile, if you are a Contractor building pedestrian boardwalks and bridges for Councils, National Parks, Road Transport Authorities, Department of Education, Marine and Port Authorities, Airport Corporations, Business Parks or Land Developers, become a Wagners CFT Installation Partner and benefit from offering your clients a sustainable and affordable alternative to finite traditional building materials like timber and steel. And if you are a Landscape Architect or Structural Engineer designing pedestrian boardwalks and bridges become a Wagners CFT Design Partner and get the edge over your competitors for contracts, start winning design awards and challenge your abilities by working with futuristic FRP materials.

An introduction to Wagners CFT and how we produce one of the world's strongest pultruded FRP products
Join us for this 30-minute recorded webinar as introducing Wagners CFT and discussing how the business produces one of the world's strongest pultruded Fibre Reinforced Polymer profiles.
Wagners CFT manufacture innovative structural composite sections using a unique pull-winding process that can be used as a replacement for steel, aluminium and wood in infrastructure project or engineering applications.
Wagners FRP has significant advantages compared with traditional building materials as it is resistant to corrosion, lightweight yet strong, and easy to install and maintain.

$6.9m East End Boardwalk project set to save Townsville millions
Townsville City Council used cutting edge technology in Wagners CFT Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) profiles to build the East End Boardwalk; saving the city millions in repair and maintenance costs over the lifetime of the structure.
Benefits of using Wagners FRP include:
- Smart and efficient installation (modular in design)
- Lightweight and can be prefabricated off-site
- Meet AS1657 for access and mobility (as well as AS2156 & AS1170)
- Inert - won't react to moisture, chemicals, or sun and rot, rust, corrode
- Resistant to termites and acid sulfate soils
- Non-leaching which means it's perfect for marine environments and areas of high conservation value
- 5-7 times less embodied carbon compared to traditional materials
- 100-year design life

Designing and building pedestrian infrastructure including boardwalks and bridges
Join Business Development Lead Darren Wilson and Townsville City Council Program Director Danny Lynch as they discuss constructing pedestrian boardwalks and bridges utilising Wagners CFT Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) profiles in this 45-minute pre-recorded webinar.
Danny Lynch shares his extensive knowledge regarding designing and building with FRP and outlines the many and varied significant projects Townsville City Council has elected to use FRP for in recent years including East End Boardwalk, the Townsville Stadium project and Castle Hill Steps.
FRP is the perfect material solution for coastal areas like Townsville because it doesn't react to moisture, chemicals (like salt) or ultraviolet light and will not rot, rust or corrode.

Composite materials have proven to be a material of choice with increased use in civil engineering applications in recent years. As the use of composite materials becomes more common, the civil infrastructure space can lever off the performance advantages that have been realised and well received within the aerospace and nautical industries for decades. Additional performance advantages such as high strength, low weight and a long service life are achieved as Wagners composite products do not corrode, rot or shrink. In challenging environments, composite materials are superior to traditional construction materials such as steel and wood, ensuring a practical investment for the future of the asset.
