A vital part of the Ramsey Swing Bridge is being replaced.

The slew ring, a part of the mechanism that allows the bridge to move, is thought to be around 100 years old.

Blacksmiths from the Department of Infrastructure are fitting a replacement this week.

The swing bridge was closed yesterday, and is expected to remain so until June 20th.
