Greyhound Bridge, Lancaster
This is now a road bridge, opened in 1972, but was built in 1911 as a railway bridge. It is curved in plan, and is supported by round iron piers. The first (wooden) railway bridge was completed in 1848, and replaced by a steel bridge in 1864. In turn, this was replaced by the existing bridge. (See http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/environment/historichighways/allpurpose/greyhoundbridge.pdf)

A683 Heysham-Lancaster Bypass, 60mph limit as of 2012.
A683 Heysham-Lancaster Bypass, side road always National Speed Limit, no change. Odd signing though.
Non-ugly Vectras
The Vectras here, on the A683, seem to work far better than many examples cited. The brackets are of a decent size, and the curved nature resembles more 'continental' installations. Also thankfully these models are flat-glass so don't even look ugly.

Looking towards Morecambe and the White Lund Trading Estate. This is the main road from Lancaster and Morecambe to Heysham Nuclear Power Stations and the port for the ferries to the Isle of Man and Dublin.
