Boundary bridge closure Options

[Exhausted]

It seems that Boundary Road will be closed to traffic for eighteen to twentyfour months when the railway bridge is being replaced, starting some time later this year. There will be a temporary footbridge but no vehicle access.

When the bridge was closed for a couple of weeks a few months ago, the repercussions on traffic flow then was pretty grim. I wonder if WBC highways will be able to give us any relief and have a master plan.

Well, it seems we're plainly ill-informed on here and have been fussing over nothing as according to the article in the NWN the bridge IS going to be two way WITH a footway (although it does say 'anticipated')

A small bottleneck will still be in place for a short period on the north side of the bridge until the new Sterling Cables estate is complete and brings a new junction into that area. But once that is sorted we'll have a proper two way crossing over the railway and therefore the current problems of whether you'll be able to see from one side to the other because of the increased hump of the new bridge, will be redundant.

Hooray.....
