Traders at a rural business park near Wistow in Leicestershire say the ongoing closure of bridges in the area is threatening their livelihoods. Network rail started work raising local rail bridges last year and are now in the middle of works to a second bridge in the area. Meanwhile Leicestershire County Council closed another bridge after a motorist crashed into it just before Christmas. Midland Main Line says it's committed to completing the work as soon as possible. Network Rail is urging businesses to contact them. Leicestershire County Council has said that they understand the business owners concerns and that they're working with Network Rail to support the scheme's completion.
