Golf Courses Projects

Pedestrian Bridges, Concrete Boardwalks, Trails, and More

According to one recent study, about 43% of all golf courses worldwide are located within the United States – totaling about 15,500 separate courses. People embrace golf for a wide range of different reasons – from using it as an opportunity to get some exercise to enjoying the great outdoors to a legitimate love of the sport itself.

Because of this, golf courses need to be a few different things, all at the exact same time. They need to be functional. They need to be eye-catching. They need to add to an environment that likely includes water holes near rivers, ponds, streams, and lakes; not detract from them. All of these are essential parts of the golf experience which is why your pedestrian bridges, concrete boardwalks, trails, and more cannot come as an afterthought.

How TerraTread Can Help With Your Next Golf Course Project

When it comes to something like pedestrian bridges on a golf course, there are a number of important things to keep in mind. A golf course is an enjoyable entertainment environment, yes – but it’s also a business first and foremost. Businesses always have to look for ways to minimize costs while maximizing profit.

A pedestrian bridge from TerraTread can help with that, as they are known for their longevity. Not only do you save quite a bit of money by avoiding continual replacement (not to mention the annual maintenance requirements that come with that), but thanks to the materials that are used you also help create the safest possible environment as well.

This goes for not only pedestrian bridges but also concrete boardwalks, pathways, trails, and anything else on a golf course. When you don’t have to worry about concrete cracking beneath golf carts and a lot of heavy foot traffic, you can start thinking about how to use all the money you’re saving in other areas of your enterprise where it can do the most good.

Remember that golf courses tend to be filled with a lot of water and using the wrong type of material for your pedestrian bridges can lead to dangerous or otherwise disastrous situations. With TerraTread and our pedestrian bridges, you won’t have to worry about golfers tripping, slipping, or falling (or the legal ramifications that might come with that).

Take Advantage of Everything TerraTread Concrete Boardwalks Have To Offer

There are numerous benefits you will enjoy with TerraTread concrete boardwalks, including:

Longevity: TerraTread is a concrete boardwalk solution that is customized to your course’s environment. They require no maintenance, featuring a 60-year lifespan. You do not have to worry about the wooden parts of your golf courses breaking down with routine wear and tear. With its long lifespan, TerraTread allows you to direct your course’s dollars into new endeavors instead of costly maintenance and rebuilds.
Accessibility: TerraTread boardwalks will also make your course more accessible, as they can stand up to routine wear and tear, particularly near water holes. TerraTread can carry landscape equipment and carts while spanning over water and curving with your environment. Even if there are multiple golf carts going over the walkways at the same time, TerraTread is up to the challenge.
Aesthetics: TerraTread will also add to the aesthetics of your golf course. Aesthetically, TerraTread has a fine wood texture on each of its treads. The treads and beams are engineered and produced to provide a smooth walking and riding experience. Combining strength and longevity with TerraTread’s attractive solutions will make your next golf course project something patrons will admire for decades.
Weather Resistance: Finally, TerraTread concrete boardwalk systems are also weather-resistant. Traditional golf course paths can be damaged significantly by inclement weather. Freezing temperatures and wet weather causes materials to wrap, leading to potholes along the pavement and paths. Groundskeepers can also struggle to keep the course in good condition. Because TerraTread concrete pathways are weather-resistant, your golf course can resist these large temperature and weather swings.

These are just a few of the many benefits you will enjoy with TerraTread concrete boardwalks.
