FP1492 / FP1494

The footbridge on FP1494 has been repaired; however, a section of the route remains closed and must not be accessed. Updated closure notices and additional signage have been installed at the top of the steps to clearly identify the restricted area.

An alternative route is in place via FP1494 and FP1493 between Friday Street and Horsham Road. Diversion notices have been positioned at either end of FP1492 to guide users safely along this route. If any signage is missing, it may have been removed.

FP1501 / FP1502

These footpaths remain closed. Closure notices and Heras fencing have been installed on site to restrict access.

Despite ongoing efforts, there have been repeated instances of notices being removed and fencing being tampered with or pulled down. The developers have confirmed they will continue to monitor the situation and reinstate closure measures as necessary to maintain public safety.

Important Information

All users are advised to respect the closures currently in place and follow the signed diversion routes. These measures are necessary to ensure safety while works and site management continue.
