Contractors to face repair costs on 拢20.3m Glasgow bridge
Contractors have to face repair costs on Glasgow鈥檚 Clyde Arc bridge, where inspectors found a new crack yesterday afternoon.
Contractor Edmund Nuttall is looking at extra costs to repair damages on the 拢20.3m bridge, which was first closed to road traffic two weeks ago after a support cable snapped.
Glasgow Council revealed yesterday that a crack was found on the bridge, which is likely to have developed since the cable broke.
A spokesperson for Glasgow Council said the crack was not there when the supporting cable first snapped.
The spokesperson told 黑洞社区: 鈥淲e need to carry out more inspection work to find out what happened, but the crack wasn鈥檛 there initially.鈥�
The bridge is likely to remain closed for up to six months. The council has also called for a stop to river traffic underneath the bridge.
The spokesperson said: 鈥淲e felt it was necessary to take all sensible precautions.鈥�
