Bridge carrying First Turn, Wolvercote
Image: © Richard Vince Taken: 8 Nov 2016
This narrow bridge carries the eccentrically named First Turn across the Oxford to Bicester railway line, this section of which (between Oxford and the new Oxford Parkway station) was closed when this photograph was taken. The bridge parapets appear to have been rebuilt very recently, with a view to the potential electrification of the railway as part of the East West Rail scheme (which, given the serious delays and cost overruns incurred by current railway electrification projects, appears some way off).
