Waterman Road links Red Lane with a large roundabout on the A444 Jimmy Hill Way, which was built in the 1990s, so this bridge-tunnel presumably dates from this time also. The new A444 was built on the route of a disused railway, and the OS one inch 7th series 1955-61 map shows a railway bridge here, carrying a siding to the ordnance works on Red Lane.
