Many congratulations, a well deserved recognition of all your hard work!

The Iron Bridge Project Diary has been updated with details of the Mersey Basin Campaign Unilever Dragonfly Awards for 2008. Go to the diary to see why: www.marple-uk.com/ironbridge

The Brabyns Park Discovery Trail booklet can now be downloaded from The Marple Website so that you can print your own copies. See www.marple-uk.com/ironbridge

PS - I understand that 200 copies of the booklet were recently delivered to Marple Library, so you can still get an original copy from there at the moment.

The Iron Bridge Project Diary has been updated this morning to give you a sneak preview of the new interpretation panel that will be installed soon. Visit www.marple-uk.com/ironbridge to learn more.

Fifty copies have been delivered to Marple Library today!

That would be my plan in the longer term when they're all gone, yes.

Printing a copy yourself will not give anything like the quality of the proper booklet though, with its glossy illustrations and fold-out map.

Can't this be available as a PDF download? - People could print off their own copies

The Iron Bridge Project diary has been updated this morning to announce the publication of a brand new version of the Brabyns Park Discovery Trail. Only 1,000 copies have been printed and they will be distributed thinly right across the borough, so local people be warned, you will need to be quick off the mark to get your hands on a copy! Distribution is expected to begin next week.

The project diary has been updated this morning with details about the opening ceremony on 22nd June, some great new CGI "animatics" and the fact that we are now back to a single web cam because the scaffold is due to be removed at any moment. The opening ceremony will be added to the events section soon, just waiting for a couple of details to be finalised.

The Iron Bridge Project Diary has been updated with the latest news and work is expected to pick up next week with delivery of the first hollow box-section beam (with gas main fitted).

We've also had a new web cam fitted, although there's a piece of loose canvas flapping in from of it now but we hope that will be sorted out soon!
