Shepherd Meadows footbridge reopens following major upgrade (extract from BFC)<\/p>\n

The new footbridge was needed after Bracknell Forest Council closed the old one for safety reasons in January 2023.\u00a0 The new composite bridge is robust and expected to last for 125 years.<\/p>\n

A popular footbridge that spans the Blackwater River was officially recently reopened.\u00a0\u00a0The 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.<\/p>\n

My question;\u00a0 And the total cost is ? (please see below)<\/p>\n

\nWho manufactured the previous footbridge?
\nHow old was the previous footbridge?
\nWhat was the total cost of both removing the old structure and then replacing the footbridge?<\/p>\n
