Council opens pathway as Bridgnorth Cliff Railway talks 'continue'
Bridgnorth Town Council has reopened the public pathway above the town's cliff railway as talks continue over a second round of repairs to fix the retaining wall that saw it close.
Bridgnorth Cliff Railway was closed in December over health and safety fears after damage to a retaining wall was uncovered by contractors.
While one section of the wall has now been repaired, Bridgnorth Town Council is still awaiting a signature from the owner of the railway to commence a second round of repairs.
In the meantime, the town council has reopened Castle Walk that runs above the railway while its says "talks continue" with the funicular train's owner.
In a statement the town council said: "Bridgnorth Town Council has been committed to the remedial works on the retaining wall at the Castle Walk and understands the current delays in completing these works are frustrating for all parties, residents, businesses in both Low Town and High Town and visitors to the Town.
