A popular walking and cycle path across the River Dee has been closed for urgent repairs. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

At least one of the wooden boards which spans across the pathway on Hawarden Bridge has broken off leaving a large hole. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The path is part of National Cycle Route 5 linking Shotton to Deeside Industrial Estate. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Work will be carried out by Sustrans, the UK walking and cycling charity and “custodian” of the National Cycle Network. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
