Throughout the day the Parish Council have been in touch with key personnel within District and County Councils, to ensure we are kept up to date with discussions taking place and plans being formulated following the serious damage to North Mill Bridge in the early hours of Sunday.
We have also written to the leaders of WSCC, CDC, relevant Cabinet Members, Councillors and our MP Andrew Griffith, expressing our concern over the impact any length of closure or restricted access will have on our Parishioners and businesses in Midhurst, requesting that the matter is treated as a top priority.
As you may know, 4 way lights are now operational with a temporary concrete barrier in place, to enable a single lane to re-open.
We understand that it will close again later this evening for just a couple of hours to carry out some additional safety works.
Structural engineers and the WSCC Highways engineers are now assessing the required actions to enable a permanent solution and as soon as we learn more about what that will look like and the next steps, we will post further updates. We will remain in daily communication with the relevant teams involved.
If you have any questions you would like us to raise on your behalf please email parishclerk@easebourne.org
