Work is continuing on the £2m span that will link Derry's popular riverfront walkway with the Bay Road Park and nature reserve.

A council spokesperson told the ‘Journal' the bridge is on target to be completed in spring 2024.

F.P. McCann Ltd. was appointed by DC&SDC last May to deliver the new 63m, single span foot and cycle bridge across the Pennyburn at the former Fort George site. Pre-construction work got underway last summer.
