This notice is to be found at the north end of the footbridge. It tells people what number to ring if a road vehicle bumps into the footbridge. The reference to the Railway Authority is strange as there never was such a body. It probably means the Strategic Rail Authority, which in one of the never-ending re-organisations so popular with politicians, was abolished in 2006 after just a few years life. The successor was Network Rail, but whether the phone number still applies is unknown. Image
