South Wales Evening Post - 31 July 2007
Campaigners hoping to have Swansea's Slip Bridge re-instated across Oystermouth Road say their latest campaign is a hit with residents.
The group has been calling for the bridge, which is now on Swansea's beach front promenade, to be put back up.
The group has sent out thousands of leaflets calling for residents to back their campaign.
Group spokesman Plastic Sam said: "We always thought we had public support but the overwhelmingly positive response has exceeded our wildest expectations. People are not just taking one leaflet but asking for more.
"They are congratulating us on carrying on the fight on their behalf. They're telling us that if the council thought they could just dump the old bridge on the seafront, and the people of Swansea would forget about it, then the councillors don't understand the people they are supposed to represent."
