Temporary closure of the Merryton Bridge
Tommy Hogg has been contacted by Scottish Water to inform him that the Merryton Bridge will be closed from 07.00 am until approx 12.00 noon tomorrow (Thurs, 5th July). This is for essential maintenance and inspection.
Happy to say even though I went down there with my wellies at 4:30PM today, everything looked dry and no spills. The footpath with the bad drainage which causes puddles has been cleaned. The grass next to it is no longer brown and dead looking.
Took pics, of nice clear footpaths.
And that's with that heavy rain and thunder showers this afternoon.
That's a long time for a certain person to stand there to make sure there are no wee drips from the pipe hitting the water birds!
ReplyDeleteNOW we know why it's called the sewerage bridge.
ReplyDeleteCouncillors leave well alone. Merryton Bridge. Not much merry about it!
Well, it has always been called the sewerage bride for a reason.
ReplyDeleteChange the name, change the function!
Does the closure include jobbies? If so better go tonight
ReplyDeleteSewage bridge is right. It is designed to get a sewer cross the river firstly, access second.
ReplyDeleteAt least the sewer is being checked out, and thus matter ended.
