Brook Street - Bridge Repairs

Last update: May 2025

We have been actively working over the past couple of years to determine the most appropriate remedial design for the river wall and highway bridge, balancing long-term structural stability with heritage preservation wherever possible.

Full planning permission is required for the works. We are currently compiling the necessary information for the planning application, after which we will need to wait for formal consent from Cheshire East Council and the Environment Agency before mobilisation can begin. This means we do not yet have confirmed timescales, and unfortunately, the footpath will need to remain closed until the works are complete.

In the meantime, we are conducting weekly safety checks to ensure the site remains safe and secure.
