This concrete structure spanning the railway to Llandudno has been a source of concern for many years. Built in concrete, structural deterioration advanced so far that it was necessary to install a set of girders beneath the central span to support the road deck. A weight limit of 7.5 tonnes has been in force since that time. This image was captured days before the demolition was scheduled, and plant and security fencing can be seen in place.
