Tummel Bridge brought down

The bridge is dismantled

Published on Monday 30 January 2012 18:08

THE old Tummel Way footbridge at Cumbernauld Town Centre was finally torn down at the weekend.

Demolition crews spent 14 hours at the weekend removing the 40-minute bridge, which spans Central Way.

Our photograph gives some idea of the scale of the operation.

The demolition was previously set several weeks ago, but was delayed after a site inspection found it was several tonnes heavier than stated in the plans, and there was a further delay due to high winds.

For the full story and more pictures, see your Cumbernauld News and Kilsyth Chronicle on Wednesday.
