Bridges are commonly posted because of deteriorating condition, damage caused by illegal overloading, or where they were originally designed for lower load limits than current General Access limits.

Bridge postings can be applied for short periods to enable repairs or strengthening to be completed, or for long periods of time where the bridge still
meets the current needs of the network.
