Corporation Road Bridge update: Footpath closures and weekend working in July 2024

3:39 pm, Tuesday, 2nd July 2024 - 5 months ago

Planning and development

Works to Grade II listed structure, Corporation Road Bridge, have been progressing.

Application of the primer and paint coatings has also been ongoing along with required preparation works and inspections. Control room works are in progress and all rotten timbers have now been replaced and corroded steels are due to be replaced. Insulation works are complete and roof replacement works will commence soon.

Mechanical preparation works to the underdeck of the bridge on Spans 1 to 4 are complete and painting is in progress on spans 1 to 3. To take advantage of anticipated low tide levels, weekend working is required. Footpath closures are also required whilst works are taking place adjacent to public areas to ensure the safety of both the public and the contractor.

Footpath closures will take place between 9am and 4pm each weekday. The footway will remain open during the weekend working dates. Temporary signs will be in place for the footway closures.

North East Lincolnshire Council, its delivery partner, Equans and contractor, Spencer Group, would like to thank the public for their patience whilst the work is being undertaken. As Corporation Road Bridge is a construction site, it is important that the public respect the access restrictions in place, which have been introduced for safety reasons.  Members of the public are reminded to please stay outside of all encapsulated and other working areas for their own safety, as well as that of those working there.
