TWO recycled bridges will be put up in the Wear Valley area by Durham County Council.
The steel footbridges will be installed at Wolsingham, in Weardale and across the River Gaunless at West Auckland, Near Bishop Auckland.
Work will begin next Monday to remove the Clara Street Bridge and Queen Alexandra Road Bridge in Seaham.
The work is expected to be finished by mid-June.
The bridges are to be replaced with pedestrian underpasses as part of a £500,000 highways renovation programme to enable roads to carry new 40 tonne Euro pean lorries.
