The Southern twin
There are a pair of tandem bridges over the Welland on the A15 Deeping bypass. This is the western parapet of the more southerly of them.

Twin bridges on the Deeping Bypass

The River Welland enjoys several parallel watercourses across the plain between Uffington and The Deepings, including the former Stamford Canal's route. These converge near the town bridge in Market Deeping so when the A15 was moved off that bridge to a new Bypass to the west of the town, it was necessary to bridge the Welland in two very close spots along that road.

The A15

The A15 is the main north-south road in Lincolnshire, running the entire length of the county for almost 100 miles between Hessle, near Kingston upon Hull, and Peterborough via Lincoln, Sleaford and Bourne. It is also the road that crosses the Humber Bridge.
