It is a key route in and out of the city
Lady Bay Bridge will remain closed into next week while works take place to make the structure safe. Nottinghamshire County Council has said it is working in partnership with Nottingham City Council on the clean-up operation to reopen the bridge after a lorry crashed into the brick parapet on Monday, July 4.
“I would also like to thank our teams from Via East Midlands who were on site within an hour after the collision to begin assessing the safety of the site. We are working hard to get the bridge open as soon as possible, but as with any incident like this, there is a lot more to it than can be seen. “It is still to be decided which direction the bridge will be open in and we will of course keep motorists updated on this. A number of events are taking place in the local area in the coming days and weeks, including a T20 cricket match at the weekend, and so we have been liaising with event organisers to ensure there is minimal disruption.
Councillor Audra Wynter, Portfolio Holder for Highways, Transport and Parks at Nottingham City Council, said: “We’re extremely glad to hear that the driver appears to have emerged with only minor injuries from the accident and we wish him a swift recovery.
