City of York Council say they have completed works on the approach paths to Millennium Bridge, to ensure the route will be usable in all but the worst flooding.
Work began on Monday, June 17 and was completed on Sunday (July 21). It included raising the path at the eastern end to remove a dip which suffered from flooding. The path has been raised by 60cm to ensure it remains usable during a wider range of flood levels.
