As you may be aware, skippers bridge is closed as considered structurally unsafe. It potentially could be closed to vehicle traffic, but allowed for cycle traffic or pedestrian. Apparently QLDC will consdier its future as an item on the agenda in the next annual plan meeting. There may be a risk they decide to demolish it. As have no funding to fix it. If used for cycles new cables and a new lighter deck could be put in place perhaps. Funding would still be needed, perhaps this could be raised with someone from the trails trust, or I could take it up. Thanks Dan
Well, Queenstown actually seems to do pretty well with its own cycle advocacy - and suspect that they do not need our help! But hey, they are neighbours and I’m sure we’d happily help out if there was something we could aid with.
Hi Nathan, Yep, agree they likely dont need help as such, was posting more so to find out if they are aware of this problem and how they are addressing it as i dont have any contacts in that area. Thanks Dan
I’ll just email them.
So this could be closed.
