The bridge has been propped for as long as I can remember. Being in the middle of the Cannock Chase coalfield it has been affected by subsidence. Mining in the local pit finished in 1982. Is it time to think about reconstruction now that a passenger service has been re-introduced between Rugeley and Cannock?
