Railway bridge without a railway
The bridge no longer carries traffic over it or sees trains under it. It provides pedestrian and cycle access over the top between College Road and College Mains Road, and beneath is the Maxwelltown Path - a cycle and foot way running along the route of the Dumfries to Stranraer railway which was dismantled in 2005.
