Maintenance update

We are crossing all our fingers and toes that this major upcoming maintenance is the absolute ultimate cure for our incredibly temperamental swing bridge! 🤞

Starting tomorrow from the 6th July all the way through to the 10th July, the bridge will be completely closed to all vehicular traffic for extensive scheduled repair work. we are genuinely thrilled to see some serious action being taken. 🚧

We are all hoping that this dedicated maintenance focus will finally resolve the ongoing mechanism issues that constantly leave us stranded on the wrong side of the harbour. It will be an absolute dream to cross without worrying if the metal decking has swollen up again or having to desperately sprint past the Pier Road arcades to beat the barriers. ⚓

Getting this sorted permanently right now is absolutely vital for our busy summer season. We definitely need the town infrastructure running completely smoothly before thousands of brilliantly dressed visitors descend upon our cobblestones for the incredible Steam Punk Weekend arriving on 24 July. 🎩
