“Ambitious” £1,282,096 plans to rebuild a bridge have been approved.
Three Rivers District Council allocated £320,524 to replacing the pedestrian bridge off Riverside Drive, next to Ebury Play Area, after the level of repairs that would be required in the coming years were revealed in a report.
“The Rickmansworth Aquadrome is well loved by residents, so making sure this key access is future-proofed for years to come is very important to save maintenance costs and minimise disruption as much as possible. With the River Colne bridge nearing “the end of its useable life”, though still safe to use, the planning application was approved on October 19 after being submitted on July 7.
