I should have known this would happen when I commented on recent maintenance see image 37063. The down side here is clear: another relic of the S&D has been demolished. The up side is that the removal of the S&D bridge will allow electrification of the GWML. A footbridge usable by cyclists will be built here to maintain the integrity of the Two Tunnels Trail. Devonshire and Combe Down tunnels are up the hill to the left.
