All I want for Christmas is ……. a Bridge over the River Derwent (or six)!

We wrote about bridges in the previous newsletter, and the thought continues to exercise us. It’s pretty clear that we’re going to have to cross the river quite a few times to complete our cycle route, and we need to identify a bridge design which we can maybe use several times. It needs to be competitively priced, with an appearance that fits in with the natural landscape around it. A new colleague on the working group suggested we look at Mabey Bridges, which we have done with interest. If any reader has bridge expertise, we’d be very pleased to hear from you!
