Work to install the new bridge will start next month and is due to last about four weeks
A 19th Century bridge over a trail in the Peak District is to be permanently replaced after it was damaged in a lorry crash.A temporary bridge was put in place five weeks later but this is now being permanently replaced, the county council said.
Work to install the new bridge is scheduled to start on 3 October and is due to last about four weeks. The council said the High Peak Trail, near Brassington, would be closed along with the B5056, which runs underneath, while work is carried out.The new bridge will be about 5ft higher than the previous one to try to prevent further HGV crashes, the authority said.
The old bridge is thought to have been constructed in the late 1820s and is believed to be one of the earliest railway bridges. One of the original cast iron girders that survived the crash will be positioned next to the trail, to preserve some of its heritage, the council said.
