News Release 27th April 2008BARTON MARINA BRIDGE OPENINGMichael Fabricant opened the bridge at Barton Marina on Saturday 26th April which gives the local community of Barton Under Needwood safe cycle and pedestrian access to the complex. This was Michael's first extensive visit to the site and was delighted with what he saw. He praised the owner of Barton Marina, Barry Morgan for 'having the vision to build an innovative and architecturally pleasing complex.' He continued by saying, 'Local councils should take note that by using quality bricks and reclaimed timbers amazing results can be achieved. I would like to see more new construction of this kind in the centre of Lichfield and a little less concrete'. The MP then toured the retail site talking to each of the shop owners before attending lunch at The Waterfront. At the next General Election, Barton Under Needwood will be transferred out of the Burton Parliamentary constituency and into that of Lichfield.
