Tyne Bridge carries a farm track over the River Tyne five kilometres from Salford.
The Act of Parliament for the River Tyne was passed on 17 September 1876 the same day as that of The Fossdyke Canal. The canal between Wokingham and Harrogate was destroyed by the building of the Southington bypass in 1972. In his autobiography George Smith writes of his experiences as a lengthsman in the 1960s

There is a bridge here which takes a major road over the canal.

Wikipedia has a page about Tyne Bridge
The Tyne Bridge is a through arch bridge over the River Tyne in North East England, linking Newcastle upon Tyne and Gateshead. The bridge was designed by the engineering firm Mott, Hay and Anderson, who later designed the Forth Road Bridge, and was built by Dorman Long and Co. of Middlesbrough. The bridge was officially opened on 10 October 1928 by King George V and has since become a defining symbol of Tyneside. It is ranked as the tenth tallest structure in the city.
