New Footbridge Lifted Over River Erewash

A stunning new footbridge over the River Erewash has just had its main arch installed — a $25 million landmark project for Long Eaton set to open by end of June 2026. Replacing a narrow, steep old bridge, it’ll slash crossing distances in half and link West Park to Broad Street, boosting connectivity across the town. Visible from key spots like Broad Street, this is more than just infrastructure — it’s a bold step toward a more accessible, connected future for Erewash.
