The Kennedy Boulevard Bridge in downtown Tampa, Florida is a unique, twin leaf bascule highway bridge over the Hillsborough River.

The adjacent pedestrian walkway is surfaced with Harsco Industrial IKG’s (IKG) Safe-T-Grid® aluminum grating (TB940) with Mebac® slip resistant coating, an ideal choice because its top walking surface feels like solid flooring underfoot, unlike any other open grid flooring.  

That’s because of IKG’s patented T-Bar design using extruded aluminum bearing bars to create a unique, solid feeling walking surface.  The result is a walkway that is high-strength, light weight and economical, offered as standard in the corrosion resistant 6063 aluminum alloy.

Safe-T-Grid®, like all lKG metal grating products, is manufactured to NAAMM standards.  It is available from IKG in a wide selection of styles and in plain or Mebac® surfaces.
