The link with past has now been severed. The bridge advert is for Hanson's Mild Ale, first brewed in Dudley in the late 19th century. The ale was then brewed at the Park Brewery in Wolverhampton after the closure of Hanson's brewery in 1991. Marston's, the owner of Park Brewery, ceased brewing Hanson's Mild Ale in 2007. The same advert appears on the other side of the bridge, which carries disused railway lines over Birmingham New Road.
