Bridge Plate Cart

Bridge Plate Cart

The Bridge Plate Cart was designed with safety in mind by keeping personnel off of the autocar completely.  Due to the mobility of the unit, bridge plates can be placed securely without compromising speed.  Utilizing an independently-controlled lift platform along with a bridge plate storage rack, the operator is able to access the placement area, pick and drop the plates, and move on to the next area.  Since the Bridge Plate Cart is built on the same platform as our standard Cone Cart Grunt, it retains all the same yard mobility and can quickly drive from car to car.
