Work on track to replace historic Albrighton railway bridge
Work to replace a historic bridge at a popular train station is well under way.
Published
The Grade II listed bridge, located at Albrighton Station, was originally built around 1880.
Now it is being replaced as part of work by Network Rail to make it safe.
The bridge first had structural repairs carried out around 80 years ago.
As part of the most recent works, which began on March 20 with the closure of Station Road, the cast iron parapets are being retained and refurbished.
The aim of the works is to ensure that the bridge lasts a further 120 years.
