Is the old Severn Bridge still open to traffic? |
Travel Info Is the old Severn Bridge still open to traffic? Travel Tips The old bridge is the A48, the new bridge is the M4. Both are open to traffic in both directions. Others Would seem so......the old bridge is the M4 one. http://www.severnbridge.co.uk/ edit: I stand corrected....the old bridge WAS the M4 but no longer is..... From the above site..... History and Statistics of The Severn Bridge Original Construction Details The Severn Bridge was opened by the Queen on the 8th September 1966 to replace the ferry service crossing from Aust Cliff to Beachley Peninsula, 8 miles upstream from Avonmouth. At this point the River Severn is almost exactly 1 mile wide at high water and the bridge creates a direct link for the M4 motorway into Wales. The Severn Bridge is in fact two bridges. The main section spans the Severn Estuary, whilst the second smaller section spans the River Wye. Modified 1 year ago |
