The Kingsway Bridge is the bridge over which the A50 crosses the River Mersey in the east of Warrington.
The bridge was built in 1934, diverting the A50 to travel further north through Warrington's suburbs to terminate at Longford Island, giving up Knutsford Road between Latchford Village and Bridgefoot to become the A5061, which remains the primary route.
The bridge serves as the easternmost Mersey crossing considered to be in Warrington proper, with the next being Thelwall Viaduct carrying the M6.
