The pedestrian bridge leading to Texas Beach is closed until further notice.

A recent inspection of all the park-maintained bridges found that this particular bridge was structurally unsafe for public use.

If you still feel the need to hit Texas Beach and the James River you can take the North Bank Trail east towards downtown. Although I’ll be honest not sure exactly what the mean by this route. If someone more familar with the trails wants to chime in please do so in the comments.

There is also this, “Parks and Recreation staff will be available during the holiday weekend to assist visitors and ensure their safety as they access all areas of the James River Park System,” parks and recreation said in a release Friday morning.
