Victoria Road Bridge No 1
1 Victoria Road, Sedgemoor TA6 7AB, United Kingdom
Victoria Road Bridge No 1 carries the M5 motorway over the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal.
Early plans of what would become the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal were drawn up by Exuperius Picking Junior in 1835 but problems with Wessford Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1782. From a junction with The Leeds and Liverpool Canal at Eastleigh the canal ran for 23 miles to Castlepool. Expectations for pottery traffic to Northington never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In 2001 the canal became famous when William Taylor navigated Dudley Aqueduct in a bathtub.
