Does anybody know if access to saxby bridge is now public again..
I know there was talk of it being private now but the red barriers are/were open & no private road sign up..are you allowed through barriers?

the bridge was closed as a set of top gear youths had burnt out a car at the base of the western pillar and damaged the steel wires that support the bridge and hence it was closed until it had been properly tested but I guess if the blocks have gone it is now open again though I have not been down for a few weeks; no suggestion of it being private as far as I am aware it is a public road/track

Graham..thanks for replying but i think we have our wires crossed..sounds like you are describing horkstow bridge which is open..albeit sign says agency vehicles only..blocks have gone..i was referring to saxby all saints..the red barrier you did an article on a year or so ago..
by the way..snowy owl images of yours are amazing.
