POOLE'S Twin Sails bridge has finally secured vital government funding.

After a nervewracking delay, the Department of Transport handed the town the news it had been waiting for - confirmation of the £14.1 million grant for the scheme.

It means all the funding for the £37 million project is now in place.

Work is expected to start in early summer and take around 20 months.

See Saturday's Daily Echo for the full story.
