Located near Great Western Way, this bridge carries railway lines over the B4289 in the SE corner of the major Bruce Street Bridges junction. This is one of the key railway crossing points within the town, connecting north Swindon with the town centre. The existing traffic-flow arrangement is a four mini-roundabout junction, with two roundabouts either side of the railway line which runs through the centre. Great Western Way is one of the busiest roads in Swindon, used by c19,000 vehicles daily. It is also the diversion route for the M4 when motorway closures are necessary between junctions 15 and 16. In March 2015, work is in progress on a 12-month improvements scheme to increase the traffic flow through this area. Work is scheduled to end in September 2015.
