Location ; Bristol Bathurst Basin Commercial Road
Old Green metal bridge over the basin by the Louisiana Pub New bridge built alongside in 2018 for the Metro bus and other road users Old bridge still in active use
Issue
The pedestrian path alongside over the bridge is in a poor state of maintenance Key components missing - such as side kick panels , child might fall through Rot prevailing through out the wooden walk way Hole, has developed in the pedestrian marine ply wooden section over the water area Probably hole may get larger or new hoes developed The whole pedestrian pathway needs replacing as current wood is either missing or in high state of decay and will get worse.

Hello , 5 months have passed & nobody has responded & no repair rectification work has been done on the bridge. The hole in the walk way has got bigger and the kick plates are missing. I suppose a child has to break a leg or falls through and drown before any one takes any action? Would appreciate some one some where responding and advise on action being taken .Yours sincerely Richard
