Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Traffic Warning Signs for Canal Bridge at Marsworth. The bridges over the Grand Union Canal were not designed for modern traffic, and many on minor roads, such as the road from Marsworth to Gubblecote and Long Marston. Bridge No. 130 is too narrow for vehicles to pas, and the "hump back" means that as you approach the bridge you cannot seen if anything is coming in the opposite direction. If the approach is steep there is also a danger of lorries with a long wheel base grounding on the top of the bridge. In addition there is a weight limit and iron bars will have been inserted to stop the bridge spreading under the weight of modern traffic. See 1462969.
The informal car park serves the people who live in nearby narrowboats, and fishermen. For more relevant pictures see 1462916. |
