Nature Bridges is a leading bridge company that specializes in top down construction of timber bridges and pedestrian boardwalks through environmentally sensitive areas. Through the use of lightweight hydraulic impact and material handling equipment in combination with hand driven auger machines, our top down construction method means the only things that touch the ground are workmen. The only things left behind are footprints and your new bridge.
As one of the nation's leading bridge builders, we also construct a wide variety of other development amenities, such as golf cart bridges, free span bridges, architecturally designed trellises, fencing, pavilions, decks and docks. Other amenities you may consider are our timber curbing and guardrails for vehicular bridges, roadside walkways, and timber retaining walls for those projects that require the warmth of wood in lieu of concrete and steel.
Nature Bridges is a bridge contractor that prides itself on a solid reputation of superior craftsmanship and meeting our customers' schedules. We require continuing education for our project foremen, bringing the knowledge of the testing laboratory and the field together to continually improve our building techniques.
When planning your next project, plan on Nature Bridges!

Ahmed Abiding
Challenging the fast-fashion industry
As a designer and owner of elkarti, a line of handmade luxury bags, Ahmed Abidine has two goals. He wants to make beautiful, useful accessories; and he wants to empower traditional Moroccan artists to become successful entrepreneurs.
The result is a production partnership with Morocco's Deaf Artisan Group of Marrakech, an organization that offers deaf people training and education to get them out of poverty and homelessness.
Ahmed describes his approach to business as, "following what really inspires me, and using it for the benefit of others. I love what I'm doing."
A native of Morocco, Ahmed developed a deep appreciation for fashion and fine craftsmanship while watching his grandfather make hand-crafted leather sandals and his mother design traditional Moroccan dresses. This artisan upbringing, combined with a flair for entrepreneurship, led Ahmed to study at Portland State University's School of Business, where he designed a sustainable business model for elkarti with the help of PSU's Social Innovation Incubator program.
"I wanted to understand sustainability and how to implement it in business. PSU taught me how to look at all the factors," says Ahmed. "Portland State gave me the visibility, the support and the confidence I needed to follow my dreams and make the world a little better. I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing without PSU."
