ranworthbreeze Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Update on Mutford Lock – Road Bridge not Operational Oulton Broad Road Bridge is now operating with reduced schedule of opening times until repairs are completed to a damaged barrier. Bridge lifts will be possible each Friday, Saturday and Sunday between 9.15am and 11.45am. Advance booking is necessary. For bridge lifts on a Saturday or Sunday, bookings must be made by 11.30am on the Friday before to guarantee an opening. The lock is open and operating on all normal published hours for vessels not requiring a bridge lift. Suffolk County Council expect the repair to the barrier to be completed in mid-March. Once the repair is complete full normal service will resume with bridge lifts possible each day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 The damaged barrier has been out of order for weeks. Suspect that if it had been cars that were held up then it would have been fixed in hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
