Back in the 18th century, the builders of the single track Sonning bridge could never have imagined the heavy use being made of it a couple of centuries later. Many commuters now use it to avoid the even greater congestion over the bridges in Reading, especially when travelling to and from London. The people of Sonning would hope that a proposed third bridge over the Thames in Reading may one day bring them some relief.

Nevertheless, it is still an attractive bridge and in spring, with the willow trees coming out into leaf and the daffodils in flower it can be a very pleasant place to visit ... if one's ears can be closed to the sound of the traffic.
