Steal Bridge again

It was too wet and windy for the hills today so I went for a walk up to Steall Meadow to see what was happening with the broken wire bridge. The answer is "not a lot !"

As you can see in this picture, the wire is not actually broken. Instead, one of the two steel cables, which make up the "foot rope", has come loose from its fixing. On the face of it, it would not be difficult to re-attach it ?

The fact that it is taking so long to do anything at all, makes me suspect that the lawyers and/or H&S people have got involved.

Despite the notice on the bridge, " DANGEROUS STRUCTURE - DO NOT CROSS", it is clearly possible to cross - see this picture, taken this afternoon.
