Bishop's Bridge, Road bridge in Paddington, England.
Bishop's Bridge spans across the Grand Union Canal and railway lines, connecting the eastern and western sections of Paddington with two traffic lanes in each direction.
The current bridge, opened in 2006, replaced a structure that contained a hidden 1838 iron bridge designed by engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel without using bolts.
The bridge forms part of the A4206 transport corridor, linking diverse communities near Paddington Station while serving over 25,000 workers in technology, finance, and media sectors.
The structure carries more than 10,000 vehicles daily, including 500 heavy goods vehicles, connecting Westway and Harrow Road to Westbourne Grove in central London.
During reconstruction work, workers discovered Brunel's original iron bridge with bulb-headed cast iron girders, which now remains under protection of English Heritage.
