Bidford Bridge, in Bidford-on-Avon, has been damaged by an Uber car crashing into it and becoming wedged early morning on Saturday 10 August.
Councillor Daren Pemberton said: “I have been with the county council engineer and can update as follows. The car has been moved sufficiently to allow a pedestrian access this afternoon. The car will be barriered off later this afternoon. It cannot be moved safely until Monday.
“There is significant damage to the bridge and will take some time to be assessed and the work itself will also take some time. As a result, the bridge will be closed to vehicles indefinitely.”
