Title: Damaged bridge over locks towpath
Post by: smudger on October 20, 2005, 08:23:10 PM

Anyone know when council or waterways will be repairing bridge wall? Seems to have been a long time since original damage was done. Will be nice to go under road again as opposed to having to cross it.

I've been told that BW will be repairing it during October. Fingers crossed.

This week I was told that the delay has been to do with finding a suitable method of protecting workmen without having to narrow the road too much (amongst other things). Apparently they don't want to use traffic lights. Anyway the ultimate outcome is that work is due to start in the first week in January. As long as there are no more hiccups it shouldn't take long!
