Ballysmuttan Bridge

Would anyone know if the approach and crossing of Ballysmuttan Bridge from the Blessington side is safe at the moment? Someone suggested to me that it wasn't. I'd need to inform a group who will be approaching from Blessington on Saturday of any possible dangers in taking the route over this bridge. Thank you.

Last weekend there was apparently a "Road Closed" sign on the Sally Gap road side, but I don't know what the status is now. I don't think the bridge was completely down, just damaged, making it unsafe for vehicular traffic.

Maybe give Wicklow Co Co roads department a call?
