During a recent inspection of park-maintained bridges, the pedestrian bridge that leads to Texas Beach was found to be structurally unsafe for public use. This bridge will be closed effective immediately.
Visitors to the area will be able to access the James River shore by taking the North Bank Trail east towards downtown until further notice.
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.
