The three chemical works bridges at Calf Heath/Four Ashes have now been removed. The no stopping restri tion is still in place though. ---- Yes we really need to remove them. They've been removed so well there's no indication they were ever there --- Steve ----

Now demolished, this was a combined pipe and foot bridge within the works.

Just to be clear, there are NO bridges (4No.) between here and [Gravelly Way Bridge 78]? I'll delete them but what need to be done with the photos? --- Shultzy ---- It's something I've raised with nick in the past - it would be nice if we could keep them somewhere, just for historical interest. --- Steve ---- Perhaps create a [Site of 3 former chemical pipe bridges] and put the photos there --- Shultzy ---- I think that the best thing to do with what we have would be to move them to the last place on each side (and probably add a note about the works and no stopping). Another idea would be to create a new category of feature (to go with cutting, embankment, aqueduct, tunnel) with a bland name like "other feature". It could cover the chemical works with the warning about no mooring along it in a navigational note for it, and also hold all the historical photos. It shouldn't be difficult, and we could surely find other uses for it elsewhere. --- Nick
