THE installation of a £1million bridge which has proved controversial but will provide easier access between two caravan parks has now been completed. Park Holidays UK has put in place a 40-metre-long overpass across a watercourse in Jaywick, connecting the St Osyth Holiday Park and Martello Holiday Park. The 7.35-metre-wide bridge, which was hoisted into place in two sections, boasts both a road carriageway for vehicles and a walkway for pedestrians. Work on the huge civil engineering project began in October last year and has been led by Essex construction specialists S&M Contractors from Braintree. Previously, residents and day-trippers would have to embark on a 20-minute drive in order to travel from one park to the other, despite them being only yards apart.
