Monmouthshire County Council and Monmouth Town Council has welcomed the significant progress made on Inglis Bridge in Monmouth, with the bridge expected to reopen to pedestrians at the end July, following the completion of major refurbishment works.

To celebrate the work coming to an end, an event was held at the site, that included pupils and staff from Osbaston Primary School. They were joined at the event by the local Member of Parliament, Catherine Fookes MP, and the Mayor of Monmouth, Cllr Rob Barrell, Monmouthshire County Council’s Leader, Cllr Mary Ann Brocklesy, Cllr Sara Burch, Cabinet Member for Rural Affairs, Housing and Tourism, and Ministry of Defence contractors whose work has helped make the bridge crossing open once again.

Thank You!
