This case study features YEROO customized span-road gantry billboard installed above a busy urban arterial highway in Ghana. The overhead arch-type billboard fully stretches across multi-lane roadway, with all overall dimensions, frame structure and load capacity customizable per client’s project requirements. Widely applied on Ghana’s city trunk roads and expressways, this gantry billboard achieves full-road coverage for roadside commercial advertising and local government public welfare promotion.

Key Challenges of Highway Overhead Advertising in Ghana

Local outdoor media operators in Ghana face multiple obstacles when deploying cross-road billboards:

1. Uneven Road Width Specs: Ghana’s urban roads vary drastically in lane quantity and total pavement width; fixed-standard billboard frames cannot adapt variable span requirements across multiple highway projects nationwide.

2. Strict Road Safety Restrictions: Over-road billboards must comply with Ghana Highway Authority overhead clearance rules for vehicle height, demanding tailor-made vertical height and overhead gap design to avoid traffic hazards.

3. Complex Tropical Climate Condition: Ghana’s tropical climate features intense equatorial sunlight, seasonal heavy rain and occasional strong coastal gusty winds, requiring robust anti-rust, wind-resistant frame construction for long-term outdoor exposure.

4. Full-lane Coverage Requirement: Conventional single-side pole billboards fail to cover all driving lanes, resulting in incomplete audience exposure and lower advertising value along busy Ghanaian city routes.

Customized Solution: YEROO Span-Road Gantry Billboard

YEROO delivers fully customizable overpass gantry billboard to address above industry pain points:

1. Full Customization on Overall Dimension

Total spanning width, vertical clearance height and advertising panel size are all flexibly customized based on actual road width, lane layout and Ghana local traffic regulation of each project. Engineering team adjusts truss frame span to perfectly match narrow inner-city road or wide multi-lane expressway, realizing full coverage across entire driving lanes.

2. Heavy-Duty Windproof Truss Frame Structure

The whole overhead framework adopts hot-dip galvanized steel truss construction, optimized with triangular bracing design to boost integral stability and wind resistance, perfectly coping with strong crosswind and humid tropical outdoor environment in Ghana. Double-side vertical support legs are anchored with reinforced concrete foundation underground to avoid structural shake during extreme rainy or windy weather.

3. Flexible Matching for Static & Backlit Version

Clients can choose conventional front-lit static billboard or LED backlit panel solution according to advertising budget and operation plan. Backlit option enables 24-hour all-day visibility, significantly improving ad exposure for night-shift highway traffic across Ghana’s bustling urban corridors.

4. Dual Function for Commercial & Public Service

Besides brand commercial advertising space, partial area of the gantry frame can be reserved for Ghana Road Safety Commission’s traffic safety notice and government public welfare propaganda, bringing extra cooperation resources and profit space for local media operators.

On-site Installation & Construction

1. Pre-project Site Survey: YEROO engineering team conducts detailed road measurement, verifies Ghana Highway Authority construction specification and overhead height limit, then finalizes exclusive customized drawing for frame size and foundation layout.

2. Foundation & Support Leg Construction: Local licensed Ghanaian contractors build underground reinforced foundation and erect two vertical supporting steel columns strictly following technical blueprint.

3. Overhead Truss Hoisting & Final Assembly: Prefabricated truss frame is lifted and spliced across the roadway by large crane, then advertising panel is fixed after full structural stability inspection.

Project Benefits & Operation Results

1. Full-lane Traffic Coverage: Cross-road overhead layout ensures all drivers from every lane can view advertisement, greatly boosting brand exposure efficiency compared with roadside single pole billboards along Ghana’s main city highways.

2. Adaptable for Diversified Road Projects: Custom-size feature allows operators to develop advertising resources on various specification highways across Ghana which standard billboard cannot fit, expanding available prime advertising locations.

3. Long Service Life with Low Maintenance: Anti-corrosion galvanized steel frame effectively avoids rust damage under Ghana’s humid tropical climate, cutting annual maintenance and rework cost for billboard owners.

4. Improved Urban Road Landscape: Standardized and neat gantry billboard upgrades roadside urban appearance, becoming mainstream high-value advertising carrier along major Ghanaian city thoroughfares.
