The wire mesh insert off the bridge railings has been removed.

Reported in the Crash Barriers - Damaged / Missing category anonymously at 10:42, Fri 31 May 2019 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Northamptonshire Highways 3 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 1644854.

Last year someone attempted to remove the holding studs that retain the infill mesh to the railings. This obviously prevents access down to the A6 road. The council came and re secured the mesh with cable ties, but now the whole sheet of mesh has gone. Yesterday, I saw 2 kids climbing through the gap and going down to the A6. I believe this to be extremely dangerous.
