Statement from Moray Council on potential closure of Delfur Bridge, near Boat O’ Brig

After intense rainfall we inspect our bridges, and the Delfur Bridge near Boat O' Brig has shown significant erosion since its last inspection in September 2018. A number of masonry blocks have dislodged on the abutment – the structure on which the bridge sits.
We’ve put down sandbags to add a layer of protection and reduce further deterioration, and we've installed traffic lights on the bridge
