The footbridge to Percival’s Island will be closed next week while repairs are made to its deck.
The city says the bridge will be closed from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. It will be reopened to pedestrians and bicyclists during the early morning and evening hours.
Only the Lynchburg bridge will be affected. Percival’s Island, part of the RiverWalk trail system, will remain fully accessible from its Amherst County entrance.
Trail users are asked to obey signage and use caution near the construction area. Crews are replacing warped floorboards, as well as applying a fresh coat of sealant.
The Parks & Recreation Department said that work, which began in July, should be completed next week.
