A gasworks company is looking to install spike matting over one of its main gas pipes – affecting a grade II listed railway bridge in Windsor. The bridge, known as Span 128 Windsor Viaduct, was constructed to carry the Slough-to-Windsor branch of Great Western Railway. Some of it was built in 1849, hence the grade II listed status. Gas company Cadent’s high pressure gas pipe is attached to the bridge deck. They said that the site will be accessed via Alexandria Park and thus the Thames Footpath can remain open should works go ahead.
