Signs are about to go up advising walkers to Ben Nevis that the two aluminium bridges on the main path up the mountain from the Glen Nevis Visitor Centre to the summit are to be replaced.
Ben Nevis
Work is due to start on Monday 19 May to replace both footbridges and is estimated to take up to four weeks. Due to the nature of this essential work and to ensure the safety of the contractors and all other path users, everyone using this route is advised to follow the advisory signs on the hill and the on-site instructions.
Restrictions and path closure will be kept to a minimum and all other routes onto Ben Nevis will be unaffected.
The work is being funded by the landowners Rio Tinto Alcan. Public information and guidance can be obtained from Glen Nevis Visitor Centre on 01397 705922.
