The Bridge: 15th November 2024 - Part 5

Thank you to the Chinese couple for speaking to me about their concerns regarding the bridge closure. Given their road lies in between the two ANPR cameras, I really wonder what will happen to them.

I am told the barricades went up at 3am and work started at about 6am. They were held up for 3 hours by Roy, who drove his invalid carriage into the work area behind a bus, but aside from that, they were able to work without and real further interruption for the rest of the day. It makes me wonder why the road was going to be closed for 2 weeks if this is the only bit they were going to be doing all along.
