    last Sunday’s Indo had a piece on it, think they said it was something to do with the new walking surface and nothing to do with the structure…and that it would remain closed for just a “few days”…won’t hold my breath

    hmmmm

    Although I think the metal work and lighting looks fantastic, I sort of wish that they hadn’t completely replaced all the stone work (and old collection points) at each end of the bridge.

    I understand why they did it, and the bridge is certainly easier to access, but it just seems a shame to take away such important features due to congestion.

    But the metal work really is fantastic…

    Yeah! I noticed the other day as I was walking over the bridge a lot of the new surface looked as if it had worn away already.
