Bridges
The county council owns and maintains many bridges and highway structures in Lancashire. This includes rural footbridges on the public right of way network.
Reporting faults and raising issues
If you wish to report a fault, please contact us.
Not all bridges and structures on the highway are the responsibility of Lancashire County Council. Other bodies that own highway bridges and structures are:
- Highways Agency - Motorways (except M65 motorway between junctions 10 and 14 which Lancashire County Council is responsible for)
- Network Rail (Bridges carrying and crossing railways).
- Canal and River Trust
Construction of a bridge over the highway
Developers planning the construction of bridges and highway structures need to consider various regulations. For an initial discussion about your proposals please use the contact details or you can email direct to developeras@lancashire.gov.uk.
