Underbridge on Station Road, Highley

Bridge 22 is an underbridge which allows Station Road to pass below the Severn Valley Railway. It is situated between Highley Station and The Engine House.

In March 1974, during final preparation for opening the line between Hampton Loade and Bewdley, the SVRSevern Valley Railway were informed that the existing bridge would have to be replaced due to corrosion. A replacement bridge was hastily ordered from Rubery Owen Limited. This was delivered in April 1974, and installed by the P.W.Permanent Way Department in time for the opening of the Highley to Arley section in May 1974.
