Mohns Park's wooden footbridge undergoes restoration work
Mohns Park is set for a minor transformation as its small wooden bridge prepares for a much-needed renovation. The construction work, scheduled to begin on Monday, September 1, 2025, is expected to last approximately two weeks.
During this period, there may be temporary detours and restrictions for walkers as the existing bridge's wooden planks, substructure, and railing are replaced. The city asks for understanding regarding these temporary inconveniences, as the renovation aims to ensure a safe bridge that will serve for many more years.
The company responsible for the renovation work has not been explicitly named in the available information. However, the focus of the project is clear: the new bridge will be secure, aesthetically pleasing, and harmoniously blended into the park's landscape.
In addition to the bridge, other improvements will be made. The shorelines will be stabilised during the construction process, and silt will be removed from the area of the bridge and a small adjacent pond section. This will help maintain the park's natural beauty and ensure the longevity of the renovated bridge.
The steel underpinnings of the existing bridge will remain, receiving new corrosion protection if necessary. The replacement bridge will be constructed on the existing steel supports, ensuring minimal impact on the park's structure and environment.
The city encourages park visitors to consider these temporary detours during their visits for a safer and more enjoyable experience in Mohns Park. The renovation work is a testament to the city's commitment to maintaining and improving its public spaces for the benefit of all its residents and visitors.
