What is a bridge strike?

A bridge strike occurs when a vehicle, or its load, collides with a bridge. This is a common issue, particularly involving heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and buses. These vehicles often exceed the height restrictions of bridges, leading to costly damage, traffic disruptions, and even injuries.

research has shown 43 per cent of lorry drivers admit to not measuring their vehicle before heading out on the road

Data from Network Rail

Risk Of Low Bridges

When driving an HGV or other large vehicle, one of the common road hazards you encounter is a low bridge. While most of these have warning signs and height designations displayed, it’s not always possible to judge the gap accurately. Bridge strikes account for more than 2,000 accidents per year on British roads. Not only do they cause considerable damage to the vehicle involved they also cause structural damage to the rail network making it dangerous for trans to pass over. They are also a risk to other road users in the vicinity, due to flying debris and the vehicle in question coming to a sudden stop.

Delays & Financial Impact

Furthermore, since they often block the space underneath the bridge until they can be recovered, such collisions cause major delays.After every incident, the bridge needs to be examined to make sure the overall structure is safe enough for trains to pass over and vehicles to pass through.

Drivers

Instances involving drivers are often prosecuted, and in cases of dangerous driving, jail sentences are not uncommon. Collisions, such as bridge strikes, can result in severe consequences, including injury or fatality. Drivers held accountable for a bridge strike may face disciplinary measures, fines, fixed penalties, and potential prosecution for careless driving. Furthermore, negligent drivers may be personally responsible for damages and repair expenses, which can significantly impact their future employment prospects.

Operators

In the event that one of your vehicles is involved in a bridge strike, you may be held accountable for covering the entirety of the bridge repair costs, in addition to other associated expenses such as compensation. As a result, operators, transport managers, and drivers are commonly summoned before the Traffic Commissioner. Operators may face regulatory actions against their operator’s license, while transport managers risk damage to their reputation or disqualification as CPC holders.
