The contractor has found that additional repairs are necessary, therefore the works will continue until 17th February 2019.

Description

Contractors (Amco) are carrying out bridge strengthening works and require an encapsulated scaffold over the watercourse.
The watercourse will be restricted at this location in width due to the scaffold at either the side of the structure however boats will still be able to navigate through during the works as sufficient width will be left for navigating.

Please slow down when approaching bridge and be prepared to stop if requested.  Delays not exceeding 15-20 minutes.
