Buck Mill Bridge has now been closed since 20th October, causing great inconvenience to those who use it. Many people agree with us how important it is for Thackley and Baildon residents, to get to work, get to school, access the nature reserve, for walking and horse riding.

It is unacceptable to wait 6 months for these repairs to take place as the Council suggested upon closing the bridge. We have demanded a plan for from the Council to repair and re-open this bridge ASAP!

Despite this outcry, Liberal Democrat Councillors have still had no response from the council as to when they are going to repair and reopen the bridge.

We need to keep up the pressure and I would invite you to sign the petition to reopen it urgently. Please share it with anyone you know who cares about and uses the bridge to sign it as well.

We the undersigned call on the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council to repair and reopen Buck Mill Bridge, Thackley, urgently.
