Default Does anyone need a bridge?

I wonder what they will do with the gaps created on the main roads.
Can't see why the army can't be called in and Bailey type bridge
installed.

After all they installed a girder bridge when the Eden washed away
the sandstone bridge at Langwathby in 1968. That Bailey type bridge
is still there and is probably the oldest "temporary" bridge in the
country.
