A defective railway bridge at Sandylands Holiday Park in Saltcoats, Scotland, will be removed starting June 12, with completion expected by June 16. Operator Parkdean Resorts cited the bridge's end of life as the reason for demolition. The bridge had been closed since July 2021, leading caravan owners to label it a 'bridge to nowhere.' No decision has been made on a replacement; guests can access the beach via a short walk or free shuttle bus.
