Footpath Maintenance


Footpath maintenance work

On the Amble marshals walks two maintenance projects were identified. The bridge at Ornamental Reservoir needed some repair work and the stile where the path leaves the road at Belmont was very unstable and quite dangerous.

A small team led by John set off to tackle this work today.

 

           

 

First it was the bridge

 

 

 

 

 

 

As it was  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Work gets underway by removing all the rotten timber. Watch the holes John!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All the rotten timber is then replaced

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Job well done

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then it was covering with mesh 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Job well done

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally it was to the style which needed major surgery !
