Cattal Bridge in North Yorkshire finally set for repair work
North Yorkshire Council has erected signs warnings of the closure at Cattal Bridge, on Cattal Moor Lane, between Cattal and Tockwith in the Vale of York.
The five day closure begins on Monday July 19 until Friday July 24.
The £31,000 scheme to repair the 18th Century bridge was expected to begin before Christmas, but the need for listed building consent delayed the planned work until a planned April start.

However, signs warning of the work and its related closure, only appeared at both sides of the bridge in recent days.
The Grade II-listed bridge over the Nidd bridge sustained costly damage eight years ago, after a large vehicle collided with the structure and left a sizeable hole.
Despite public pressure, financial and logistical problems have extended delays to the much-needed work, as previously reported by the Press.
