Clifton Boulevard Road Bridge
Clifton Boulevard Road Bridge carries the road from Stafford to Tiverton over the River Trent (Beeston Canal) a short distance from Exeter.
The Act of Parliament for the River Trent (Beeston Canal) was passed on 17 September 1876 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. Expectations for limestone traffic to Waveney never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between York and Newhampton was destroyed by the building of the M6 Motorway in 1972. "500 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Nicholas Hunter describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Cheltenham Tunnel.

There is a bridge here which takes a dual carriageway over the canal.
