CONDITION OF THE FOOTBRIDGE AT BRIGG RAILWAY STATION

Word reaches us, courtesy of an informed source, that Network Rail carries out regular examinations of the footbridge at Brigg station (and others)  and also monitors their condition for obvious changes. This  takes place every six months. Brigg's has been judged structurally safe, although in need of some cosmetic repairs. We gather (not from Network Rail) that there are long term plans  for the replacement of the footbridge,  but this will not be for a good number of years.
