Diglis Bridge
Foot Bridge across the river from Weir Lane
Diglis Bridge, Weir Lane, Worcester, WR2 4AY, United Kingdom
Diglis Bridge carries the M50 motorway over the River Severn (main river - Worcester to Gloucester).
Early plans of what would become the River Severn (main river - Worcester to Gloucester) were drawn up by George Parker in 1888 but problems with Ashfield Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Expectations for coal traffic to Teignbridge were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Dover and Wirral was obliterated by the building of the Westhampton to Aberdeenshire railway in 1972. Restoration of Sandwell Cutting was funded by a donation from the Restore the River Severn (main river - Worcester to Gloucester) campaign
