The bridge is a brick construction arch bridge that carries the railway over a road. The rails, that are still in use, connect Blackfriars and Elephant and Castle stations.
Arch bridges, due to their constructed shape, do not have a consistent clearance above the road from one side to the other. This means that large road vehicles may sometimes hit the bridge. In the event of that happening, there is a notice attached to the bridge, giving a phone number and bridge identification. This enables the unlucky road user to advise the rail network of his mishap.
The notice, for this bridge, reads:
"This is bridge 404 HHH
Treveris Street
between Blackfriars - Elephant and Castle
In the event of any road vehicle striking the bridge please phone
Railtrack on
020 7928 4616
as quickly as possible. The safety of trains may be affected."
Bridge Type: Arch
