Torridge Bridge, Road bridge in Bideford, England.
The Torridge Bridge spans 650 meters across the River Torridge with three concrete piers supporting eight spans of prestressed concrete box girders.
The bridge opened in May 1987 as part of the Bideford Bypass project, replacing the previous route through the center of Bideford town.
The bridge design received recognition with the Concrete Society Award in 1988 for its engineering methods and structural features.
The bridge carries the A39 road traffic with connections to the A386 and B3233 through roundabouts at both ends of the structure.
The bridge structure includes 251 precast concrete segments, with individual pieces weighing up to 105 tonnes during construction.
