It is designed in a way that allows for simple, modular construction of a comparatively small basic structure that meets all current standards. The NextG Rail Bridge has been designed for use with both metro and heavy haul infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>It can be used for new installations or retrofitted on existing bridges. This advancement on bridge technology negates the need for ballast, reducing maintenance and increasing the asset lifespan. The NextG Rail Bridge is fully compatible with existing rail infrastructure and is a simple and effective way to renew, or replace, current life expired or damaged infrastructure without compromising track quality. In addition, it provides an effective interface solution between ballasted and ballastless track systems.<br \/>\nThe NextG Ladder Track is stronger than a traditional track; it has a longer life span and improves vibration mitigation. These benefits combine to provide the first true advancement in ladder track technology. The elevated ladder track addresses vibration mitigation in a way that has previously only been seen in slab and ballastless track systems; it dampens the vibration through the beam, which not only protects the supporting beam but also addresses differential settlement.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/mercuryrail.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/NextG-Rail-Bridge-With-Title.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;NextG Rail Bridge With Title&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0c71c3;\">FEATURES<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Modular construction<\/li>\n<li>Low maintenance<\/li>\n<li>Relocatable and reusable<\/li>\n<li>Advanced vibration mitigation<\/li>\n<li>Anti-derailment system (if required)<\/li>\n<li>Ballastless to ballasted interface<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0c71c3;\">BENEFITS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reduced construction schedule<\/li>\n<li>Reduced OPEX<\/li>\n<li>Sigificant cost savings<\/li>\n<li>Increased track lifespan<\/li>\n<li>Increased reliability and safety<\/li>\n<li>Easily intergrated to existing track<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0c71c3;\">APPLICATION TYPES<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Box girder bridges<\/li>\n<li>Truss bridges<\/li>\n<li>Pre-stressed concrete bridges<\/li>\n<li>Simply supported bridges<\/li>\n<li>Level crossings<\/li>\n<li>In-motion weighbridges<\/li>\n<li>Cantilever bridges<\/li>\n<li>Viaducts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NextG Rail BridgeNEXTG RAIL BRIDGEThe Low Cost Sustainable Transport System (LCSTS) is designed to provide a range of rail solutions, from public transportation for cities to heavy haul freight.
