Safety fear closes Bolas Bridge
August 26th, 2010Telford & Wrekin Council has been forced to close a minor road which straddles the boundary with Shropshire Council after a routine inspection found a bridge had become unsafe due to erosion of the river bed.
The unclassified road between Great Bolas and Little Bolas will be shut for a number of weeks while temporary safety measures are put in place to bolster the bridge.
It is expected the first phase of work to get the road re-opened may cost up to £30,000 with a more long-term solution likely to be as much as £100,000.
