Closure of the Aylesford Bridge on the B4386 – Reminder

Aylesford Bridge carries the B4386 between Marton and Woodmoor Farm over the Aylesford Brook (near the Folly Cottages)

The repair work will involve taking down and rebuilding the downstream parapet, spandrel, right hand pilaster and the top of the right wall.

The work is proposed to start on 6th July and is expected to take up to 6 weeks. It will be carried out by the Council’s maintenance contractor, Kier

Unfortunately, because of the narrow nature of the bridge, it will be necessary to close the bridge to traffic (24 hours a day) for the duration of the repair work. When the bridge is closed, traffic will be diverted via Chirbury and the A490 as shown on the enclosed plan. Access over the bridge for pedestrians and dismounted cyclists will remain possible throughout the works.

With regards to Tanat Valley Bus Service No 558, Passenger Transport Group will update information and Heather will send that out when I have it.
