Locals in Worcester, UK, were promised a new footbridge with scenic paths leading to the city aimed at getting more people outdoors.<br /><br />But users of the Kepax Bridge - which spans the River Severn – say it is “pointless” and is surrounded on both sides by a muddy quagmire.<br /><br />Worcestershire County Council hoped the bridge would reduce road traffic and help students cycle to lectures at the city's university.<br /><br />But locals say the site is a "dangerous mess" and have blasted the council for funding the bridge over much-needed flood defences.
