The Soldiers Bridge re-opened to the public in August 2018, following the completion of a £560,000 renovation. The two-year project was delivered by Highland Council with funding from Transport Scotland through Sustrans Scotlands National Cycle Network Development Fund. It saw the replacement of the bridge deck and handrails as well as the northern and southern ramps.
The improvements mean the bridge is now fully accessible to all users, and it is intended the upgrades will make it easier and safer for residents and visitors to explore the local area. Bridge lighting was subsequently delivered with HITRANS as part of the Caol and Lochyside Flood Protection scheme community benefit works.
