Town council facing a £500,000 shortfall after Bridgnorth Cliff Railway repairs
Repairing a damaged wall that saw Bridgnorth Cliff Railway close last year is to cost the town council more than £750,000, a public meeting has been told.
In an update to residents on Thursday night, residents were told the cost to repair the damaged wall is set to leave Bridgnorth Town Council with a shortfall in its finances of £500,000.
On the plus side however, residents were also told that the Cliff Railway could be "free to open" later this month.
More than 100 people crammed into Castle Hall in the town's West Castle Street to hear the update on the works that left the funicular railway crippled last December.
