Marlow’s historic bridge being refurbished

In April 2010 County Councillor Richard Scott presented a petition signed by over 1,000 residents to Buckinghamshire County Council requesting refurbishment of our historic bridge. Resulting from this, the County Council agreed to spend £60,000 to address some of the urgent issues.

A recent bulletin from the County Council senior bridge adviser said “the bridge is currently looking tired with flaking paint and rotting timber, so we will be replacing timber sections of the parapets, cutting and fitting 600 unique new pieces. We will also be painting some of the suspension chains to return the bridge to its former glory”. The work started mid July and will take around 16 weeks to complete.

The summer months were chosen as traffic over the bridge is generally lighter than at other times. Richard Scott said “I am delighted that we have at last obtained funds to carry out these essential works. The bridge is one of Marlow’s key attractions and should always be maintained to a high standard”.
