These two bridges carry railway tracks from Bletchley to Fenny Stratford and on towards Bedford. The nearer concrete bridge carries a single line from Bletchley Flyover, while the steel bridge carries a double track from Bletchley Station. The tracks join at Fenny Stratford Junction, just to the west of the Watling Street road bridge. Trains from Bedford terminate at Bletchley at present, but in the future when the Oxford to Bletchley line is re-opened, trains will be routed via new high level platforms on Bletchley Flyover and the nearer bridge to the Bedford line.
