While reports earlier this year suggested Broadland District Council was planning to either repair, replace, or remove the footbridge leading across the main road from Hoveton and Wroxham railway station to the Bure Valley Railway, Hoveton Parish Council is pleased to report that the Bure Valley Railway has confirmed this bridge won’t be removed, though maintenance work will be carried out to address the bridge’s corrosion problems. And in further good news, Bure Valley Railway has advised the Parish Council that it is due to take over maintenance responsibilities for the Bure Valley footpath alongside the railway.
