We have provisionally agreed that the new footbridge will be wider (1.2m) with a ramp up to it (instead of the current two steps) to facilitate a future wheelchair friendly path. Although the footbridge only crosses a much narrower waterway, it will likely be quite a few metres longer than our new one at Baylham, and would almost undoubtedly have to be a steel beamed bridge. The intent is to get it reopened as quickly as possible, but sadly this won’t be any time soon.
