You should slow down and be cautious. The bridge is narrow and there may not be enough room for you to pass an oncoming vehicle at this point. There is also no footpath, so there may be pedestrians in the road.

Humpback and single-lane bridges

It's frequently not financially feasible to replace a bridge that was constructed more than a century ago to primarily serve horses and carts hauling hay on minor routes with low traffic volumes. These bridges are frequently solid brick structures that only need the tarmac to be fixed for maintenance. Constructing a new bridge would require extensive earthwork, road closures, diversions, adherence to new building codes, planning permission, and other procedures.

You should be prepared to stop if necessary when you approach a narrow bridge. You might not be able to see what's on the bridge if it has a humpback with solid sides. If there are cyclists or pedestrians on the bridge, they may not be able to move out of the way, especially if you are driving a large vehicle. Take caution if you are towing a trailer that is wider than your vehicle because you will need to allow additional space on your left because the bridge is narrower than the road. Aim down the middle of the single-lane bridge. If your vehicle is long and low, you should be cautious about grounding it on humpback bridges.

Helping my daughter with the theory side of the test. Only wish we’d found it earlier on! Even I’m learning/getting reminded of what things mean again!
