In my local area we have a bridleway which passes over a canal by means of a metal swing bridge. The bridge has a slippy surface and only a couple of rails, no kick boards. There have been incidents of horses slipping and thier legs going over the edges of the bridge. As far as I can gather the responsibility for the bridge is with British Waterways rather than the local council, but any suggestions how we can bring pressure to bear to get them perhaps boards and improve the surface? Any legal wording that might be important to use?
They have been approached, but they don't seem to see anything wrong with it
I believe the local BHS bridleway officer has been approached and the Councils RoW person, but everyone is a bit too busy to tackle specific things like this it seems.
Thanks
