A uniquely engineered multi-span bridge replacement that improved road alignment, flood resilience, and long-term reliability for the Scenic Rim community.

When project requirements changed during design development, InQuik adapted the bridge configuration to support a revised road alignment, delivering a customized multi-span structure that improved safety, constructability, and long-term performance.
Cavell Bridge is located on Boyland Road within the Scenic Rim region of South East Queensland. The crossing forms part of the local transport network, supporting connectivity for residents, businesses, and agricultural operators throughout the region.
The replacement project upgraded an aging timber structure with a modern bridge designed to meet current performance standards. The improved alignment also enhances the approach geometry for road users traveling through the corridor.
The project underwent significant design development as site requirements evolved. What began as a single-span bridge was redesigned as a longer multi-span structure with a crossfall to facilitate road realignment and improve overall safety outcomes.
The project team also needed to clearly define design responsibilities across civil, structural, bridge, and piling elements. Detailed flood assessments identified additional lateral and uplift forces that required bespoke engineering solutions beyond standard bridge details.
InQuik provided detailed bridge design services and adapted its modular bridge system to accommodate changing project requirements. Working alongside project partners, the design evolved from a standard single-span arrangement into a unique multi-span configuration specifically tailored to the site.
Additional lateral restraint measures were incorporated to address flood loading and uplift requirements identified during detailed design. The completed bridge demonstrates the flexibility of the InQuik system while enabling Scenic Rim Regional Council's own crews to successfully deliver the construction works.
