Shepherd Meadows footbridge reopens following major upgrade (extract from BFC)
The new footbridge was needed after Bracknell Forest Council closed the old one for safety reasons in January 2023. The new composite bridge is robust and expected to last for 125 years.
A popular footbridge that spans the Blackwater River was officially recently reopened. The ribbon cutting took place on Friday 24 October. It was organised by Bracknell Forest Council parks and countryside rangers, who managed the bridge upgrade works.
My question; And the total cost is ? (please see below)

Good morning [email dated 7-11-2025]
Bracknell Forest Council recently replaced the Shepherd Meadows footbridge. Please answer the four questions as follows:
How long is the footbridge?
Who manufactured the previous footbridge?
How old was the previous footbridge?
What was the total cost of both removing the old structure and then replacing the footbridge?
Thank you
