Clifton Bridge, Road bridge in Nottingham, United Kingdom
Clifton Bridge spans the River Trent with eight traffic lanes, connecting the western areas of Nottingham through the A52 transportation corridor.
The construction began after World War II to support new housing developments, with Princess Alexandra inaugurating the structure on June 5, 1958.
The bridge creates a fundamental connection between residential neighborhoods and the city center, shaping the daily movement patterns of Nottingham residents.
Pedestrians and cyclists access dedicated paths on the bridge, while vehicles use multiple lanes in each direction for crossing the River Trent.
At its completion in 1958, the structure held the record as the longest pre-stressed concrete bridge in the United Kingdom.
