Shameful as Bassaleg Bridge remains closed after five years
R Brading criticizes Newport City Council for leaving Bassaleg Bridge closed since 2021 without a clear resolution plan. The letter contrasts the delay with Tadcaster Council’s rapid response after a bridge collapse, arguing that Newport City Council and the Senedd should prioritize the issue and provide greater accountability for more than £1 million in spending.
