The Nickey Line passing under the Solway Road bridge, originally built in 1961 as part of the expansion of Hemel Hempstead. The cutting here was deeper originally, but was partly filled in in the mid-1960s (information from "The Harpenden to Hemel Hempstead Railway" by Sue and Geoff Woodward, Oakwood Press, 1996).
