Work on the Chisholm Trail is already under way, including some works on Ditton Meadows.

The bridge itself is being fabricated off-site in Yorkshire, and on-site works on its structure will start this summer. These will necessitate the closure of the jetty under the railway bridge, partial closure of the river and full closure of the river to all access for a few hours at a time. The date and exact timings of the closures will be confirmed on signage by the jetty and on routes to the area; they are expected to be in August 2019 and running through to Summer 2020, although the path will be re-opened sooner if possible.

The works will involve the use of heavy machinery and the team apologises in advance for the noise.
