The devastating floods that hit Cumbria divided the town of Workington in half after all the bridges crossing the river Derwent that seperates the town were destroyed. This left many residents with a 40 mile car journey to get to work or school, which previously had been a half mile walk. This week a footbridge was installed by the army to reconnect the two halves of the town. The bridge was named the Barker Crossing after PC Bill Barker who lost his life when Workingtons main road bridge was destroyed. There is still no way across for vehicles and Cumbria County councul announced this week that it could take up to two years to erect a new road bridge.
