The demolition works around Freedom Square have gathered pace over the past week and much of St James Cavalier is now fully exposed.
A temporary staircase has been built just outside City Gate bridge at the bus terminus following the closure of access to St James Ditch from the Yellow Garage. And users agree it is much cleaner than the older one.
Meanwhile workers are continuing their investigation of the bridge structure ahead of its gradual demolition. Parts of the old bridge still exist. The current bridge will be replaced with a narrower one, more in keeping with the fortifications.
