Erected using volunteers at a Foresty Commission site in County Durham, HLD has supplied six kit bridges as part of a ?200,000 project to create a mountain bike training area and trail in Hamsterley Forest.

The company supplied two bridges measuring 5m long and 1.5m wide, together with another one at 4m by 1.8m, one at 5m by 1.8m and a 6m by 1.8m structure. The largest bridge was curved at 10m long and 1.5m wide. All of the structures have 1.4m high ranch rail balustrades made from FSC certified European Redwood.
