On Sunday 11th August 24 I reported a problem on a wooden bridge between Welton and Hackthorn. Today, 27th August, I saw what I can only presume is a 5 minute repair job to the bridge which presents walkers with serious trip hazard. How long will it be before there is a compensation claim? Surely you can do better than this.
