I am a member of the 'Friends of Tram Bridge' group and volunteer on their committee. We are doing our best to keep up pressure on Preston City Council, to put the Tram Bridge repair or replacement in the next round of levelling up funding.
If you want to know more about the history of the bridge and the tram road, I will be leading 2 guided Heritage walks on sat 11th Sept in and around Avenham Park as part of Heritage Open Days.
