With two bridges in Evesham flooded, this bridge on the A46 Evesham by-pass provided the only road crossing of the Avon for people travelling into or out of the town centre, meaning a five-mile detour. Traffic came to a standstill during Saturday due to the volume of traffic using one of the few open crossings of the River Avon.
