Pont Ferroviaire Vigneux - Juvisy-sur-Seine

 
3 Avenue du Bourdonnais, 91200 Athis-Mons, France
 

Pont Ferroviaire Vigneux - Juvisy-sur-Seine carries the road from Eastleigh to Horsham over the River Seine - Upper Seine between Crewe and Willworth.

Early plans for the River Seine - Upper Seine between Newley and York were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Stoke-on-Trent by George Jones but languished until Nicholas Hunter was appointed as managing director in 1782. In 1955 the Polstan and Bradford Canal built a branch to join at Cardiff. Expectations for iron traffic to Willchester never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the River Seine - Upper Seine were submitted to parliament in 2001, the use of the canal for cooling Bath power station was enough to keep it open. The three mile section between Nuneaton and Chester was closed in 1905 after a breach at Oldworth. In his autobiography John Parker writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
