PROJECT
Sysmänjoensilta Bridge – Finland
CLIENT: Municipal Authority, Finland
THE PROJECT:
Fast Access Ltd supplied 47 metres of Fast-Beam™ suspended access for parapet repair works on the Sysmänjoensilta Bridge in Finland.
The scope required full encapsulation of the bridge to allow safe removal and replacement of the parapets while protecting the environment below. The project demanded a fast, efficient solution with minimal disruption to traffic and a reduced on-site footprint.
THE SOLUTION:
Our team deployed Fast-Beam™ — the modular hybrid suspended decking system — enabling a 3-man crew to install 9 fully encapsulated platforms in just 6 hours.
Key efficiencies included:
Compact logistics – all materials delivered in one lorry load.
Rapid installation – reducing site disruption and traffic management requirements.
Full encapsulation – safeguarding the surrounding environment and ensuring compliance with environmental protection standards.
Installation & Working-at-Height Partnership
Fast Access Ltd works in partnership with TAS – Total Access Systems Ltd for all installation, dismantling, and working-at-height operations. TAS is fully accredited with ISO 9001, ISO 45001, and SafeContractor, and holds full insurance cover — ensuring the highest standards of safety, quality, and compliance on every project.
THE OUTCOME:
The Sysmänjoensilta Bridge project demonstrated how Fast-Beam™ delivers:
Exceptional speed of deployment
Minimal transportation needs
Safe, encapsulated working environments
These benefits translated into time and cost savings for the client, while meeting strict environmental and safety requirements.
