Squinty Bridge Nightmare!
Last night, Tuesday 15th January, one of the cables from the Squinty bridge crashed down onto the road because of the bad weather we have been getting, causing a shockwave. We hope it will get fixed soon because it’s just been built. It’s been less than 18 months since it was built and it cost £20 million to build. They are going to check the other 13 steel cables to see if they are damaged. If all of the cables snap, the bridge will fall down!
I’ve been across the bridge once and I pass it every day. Luckily nobody got injured as the bridge was empty when the cable fell.
