  • This picture is very old, the new bridge has been designed, built and opened since it was taken.
  • The bridge still lifts as it carries the railway lines from Sittingbourne to Sheerness - it just doesn't affect road traffic like it used to now that the locally-known-as Scalextric Bridge has opened.
