People keep bashing this bridge and consequently parking where they shouldn’t. It’s locally known as the Britney Bridge: Hit me baby one more time!
'Most bashed' Ely railway bridge hit three times in one week - no, you can’t park there, mate

I just want to see how many more warning signs they are able to tack on there.

The videos are highly entertaining.

Sounds like Ely Bridge needs a youtube channel.

Every low bridge I have heard of is at least locally famous in a pretty big radius. How do people still hit them?

They're training new drivers every day?

Not sure how much training these drivers are getting.

Entertaining but the article is from October 2025.

There were
threetwo hits this week. Quite why the BBC local news link pointed to 2025 I’m not sure. Anyway, here is the latest update. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0q25vw71neoBetween this bridge and the guided busway traps in St Ives we could keep this community entertained for a fair while.
