    We've been urging local councillors SUCH AS YOURSELF to get this (& other problem bridges) for more than two years to get these properly repaired (pic of last year's plea). And now you're having to ask .. ?! Really taxes our belief in competences ... (and priorities as against pouring money in to barely used new cycle routes ... etc etc).

    AND don't forget we also asked for some minor re-engineering on the south side of the nearby roundabout/ junction - so that any surplus storm water from the Hailey road can run directly to the watercourse and NOT simply pond-up on the highway.

  • It's now been three years since a report was raised about this (and OTHER) collapsing bridges around Witney. Why "Certain Councillors" are asking what's going on when they have had actual responsibities & involvement for yonks, we really can't understand ! Let's hope that when "Someone" actually gets on with a proper re-build, it'll be better than that at Langdale Common: inadequate handrails warping & snapping off, cracks re-opening, etc all showing incompetent specification, contracting, supervision and sign-off (for which Someone should have been sacked)
