On the morning of Thursday 21st Jan, two new concrete beams for the downstream deck will be installed.

These have been manufactured off-site and, at 35 tonnes each, will need to be lifted using two cranes in tandem. Once the beams are in place, the new concrete deck can be built on top and the services transferred from the upstream side, which then frees up the upstream deck for demolition. Access to Mill Row & Bridgend will be maintained throughout.

Bridge renovation is on target for completion by May 2016.

Work on the Laighills path ending at the bridge behind Cockburn Avenue has completed.  The scene in the picture was previously strewn with half bricks on a muddy surface that was flooded by the stream every time it rained.  Large boulders are being used to channel the stream and the path now sits at a higher level.

Work is now ongoing to build a board walk up towards Tannahill Terrace.
