Footbridge Re-opens

Local Alcester walkers and travellers on The Monarch’s Way will be delighted and receive to note that the footbridge over the A435 Alcester bypass, closed recently following damage by vandals, has re-opened.

I have not crossed it but a repair does seem to have been made; certainly the barriers have been removed. Walkers who had been using the more lengthy and certainly more dangerous Roman Way or Eclipse bypass crossings can, it seems, cross using the vastly safer Allimore Lane Route.

However I’m sure walkers, willing to risk the Roman Way or Eclipse routes out of town will enjoyed have enjoyed these hitherto little used paths offering new and different views.
