The Lift Bridge at Top Lane is currently out of action, due to a mechanical breakdown. Operatives have attended this morning but have, unfortunately, been unable to rectify the fault. Staff from our Mechanical and Engineering Team will be on site later today to investigate the cause of the breakdown and carry out a repair if possible.

This notice will be updated when the bridge is repaired and reopens for passage.
