Heald Ltd, the UK’s renowned designer and manufacturer of hostile vehicle mitigation security products has announced the launch of a Bridge Bollard System in response to recent vehicle attacks on several iconic bridges. A vital transport route, bridges are notoriously difficult to secure from the evolving threat of vehicle attacks via existing security products due to the need to either be installed by digging into foundations or by bolting to the ground which can affect the structural integrity of the bridge.
Addressing the installation challenges faced on bridges, in particular, Heald set out to develop a product which took into account the level of security required while ensuring the structural integrity of the location to be secured.
