Brief description

"The Torridge Bridge is a 650-metre-long concrete bridge, situated broadly in an east-west direction, built in 1987 in Bideford, England over the River Torridge. The bridge provides a bypass to Bideford avoiding the Bideford Long Bridge.

Known additionally for its suicides the bridge has since been improved, with the instalment of higher railings.

The road expansion joints on the west side were replaced in 2020 mitigating the loud "bonking" noise caused by passing road traffic."
