Queen Elizabeth Bridge, Road bridge in Windsor, England.
The Queen Elizabeth Bridge is a road bridge carrying the A332 across the River Thames, connecting Windsor with Slough. The concrete structure rises about 6 meters above the water surface and provides a direct crossing for vehicle traffic.
The bridge opened in 1966 to address growing traffic congestion in the Windsor region. It replaced the limitations of older crossing points that could no longer handle the demand.
The bridge takes its name from a respected monarch and connects the royal town of Windsor with its neighboring communities. The name reflects the long relationship between this location and the British royal family.
The bridge carries steady traffic between Windsor and surrounding areas and serves as a key connection to the motorway network. It is accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians who need to cross at this point.
The bridge sits near two railway stations, making it part of a transport hub where road and rail networks intersect. This proximity creates an important interchange for crossing the river.
