DAMP SQUIB SAGA CONTINUES

Could it be that water has been leaking from the pipe alongside Brigg's County Bridge for almost three months?
We were reminded this morning of a Brigg Blog picture posted on January 9 which showed icicles hanging directly under the bridge.
The leak seems to be getting progressively worse, prompting a great suggestion for a striking picture from Scunthorpe Telegraph chief photographer David Haber. How about getting an Ancholme Rowing Club member to position a canoe under the mini-waterfall and raise an umbrella to ward off the drips?
Anglian Water has been down to take a look at the problem, put a sticker on the County Bridge to say they are aware of it and allocated a job number.
But how much longer before it's fixed?
Brigg Blog went down there this morning with Deputy Town Mayor Coun Ben Nobbs and Coun Tom Glossop, who has spent years heading a campaign for improvements to the County Bridge. Our picture shows Tom taking a close look at this rather sad state of affairs, and we've repeated the one from early January (with icicles).
