Wellingborough Bridge carries the A509 road over the River Nene. The arrow indicates the arch through which navigation should pass, while the gauge board to the left does not indicate the water level as such but the available freeboard for navigation above the water. Ie, if the water level in the river rises during a flood event, the board indicates how much height space is left below the bridge arch.
