Upgrade work to Goole Swing Bridge will mean a rail replacement service between Doncaster and Hull.
By Kevin ShoesmithWork will begin later to upgrade a railway swing bridge which has been in use for more than 150 years.
The Grade II-listed Goole Swing Bridge crosses the River Ouse and uses hydraulic machinery from the 1860s. He added: "This bridge has reliably served passengers travelling between Doncaster and Hull for over 150 years and is rightly considered one of the finest swing bridges in Britain, so I'm incredibly excited to see it benefit from much-needed upgrades."
Work will include renewal of the operating plant, including the hydraulic turning and jacking systems, control system, electricity supply and navigation lights, it said.
