In order to bring the route under the structure back in to full use, National Highways said that it would cost between \u00a3316,000 and \u00a3431,000. That includes the cost of infill reversal,\u00a0 repair costs, masonry repairs to the bridge, strengthening, maintenance and examinations.<\/p>\n

National Highways confirmed the figures after they were revealed on Twitter\u2026.<\/p>\n

The 159-year-old masonry arched bridge in the heart of the Cumbrian countryside was filled in by National Highways contractors in July…<\/p>\n
