Unique railway footbridge design for South Downs National Park in England

ongoing

Local people and visitors are set to enjoy safer access across the railway at Tide Mills in the South Downs National Park after Network Rail’s proposals for a stunning new footbridge were approved. The footbridge, which has been designed to blend with the local landscape and heritage features of the old village of Tide Mills, will provide safer access to Seaford beach and the surrounding landscape. The existing footpath crossing which takes people across the railway is the busiest pedestrian crossing in the country and been identified as ‘very high risk’. Once the new footbridge is in place, the footpath crossing will permanently close.
