Originally uploaded to Coppermine on Aug 03, 2007 by Kenny1975Once the A7 used two bridges, one over the Tweed and another over the Ettrick. Now replaced by a new bridge over the Tweed just below the confluence.
The bridge carries the A7 across the River Esk just south of Langholm. It was not built for modern traffic, and a set of traffic lights controls its use. This view is looking upstream towards Langholm.
Currently the only road crossing of the river within the city
Build a motorwayish road to bypass a major city. Invite lots of traffic, and stick a roundabout in the middle, with traffic lights!
A piece of costcutting from the 1980's and a guaranteed queue. Three busy roads all cross here. The reason for the lack of a split level junction here was that it was considered too expensive to make safe the mine workings under the site. Without remedial work, the ground cannot support the weight of a bridge.
The start (or end) of the A1/A7 - both non-primary for a short while.
