THE reopening of the walkway between Teignmouth and Smugglers Lane in Dawlish has been delayed until next week, after stormy weather damaged the temporary works used to construct Sprey Point ramp.
Network Rail had originally planned to reopen the walkway this week.
Tom Kirkham, project manager at Network Rail, said: “This delay is very frustrating for all of us, not least local residents who I’m sure were looking forward to being able to use the walkway again.
“While we were prepared for the storms and took the necessary precautions, the nature of temporary structures means that unfortunately they are vulnerable in severe weather.
