New bridge opens in Quarrier's Village...

A new, improved bridge has been opened this week in Quarrier's village.
And, it now means the village has uninterrupted two way traffic after a temporary ‘bailey bridge’ with traffic lights has been removed.

The Nittingshill Bridge has been re-opened after a project was completed by the Council at a cost of £279,000.

After carrying out final inspections today (30 April 2015), Inverclyde's roads service has now lifted a four mile diversion and traffic restriction.

For the past 10 years a ‘temporary’ bailey bridge has been in place over Gotter Water on Craigbet Road in the village.

The new bridge will allow uninterrupted two way traffic and provide a new footpath for the village.

I am delighted that this project has been completed, as I'm sure will be residents and businesses in Quarrier's. It is another example of how every part of Inverclyde is benefiting from our £29m investment in our roads assets.
