Britannia Bridge
A view looking south west from Ffordd Caergybi / Holyhead Road on Anglesey, along the Menai Straits in 1988, to the lengthy Britannia Bridge that links the Isle of Anglesey main rail line from Holyhead, and the freight line running to Amlwch, into the mainland rail network. The bridge was previously rail only but, following a severe arson fire, was fitted with an upper road vehicle deck to allow an extension of the A55 expressway to be built through to Holyhead.
