Obviously a lot of rust damage is just superficial and doesn’t affect structural integrity but it must be a full time job to regularly check every bridge, particularly for damage to hidden internal load bearing elements.
How often would each bridge be examined by structual engineers, is this carried out by NR or external consultants?
edit: apologies should of said this was at Bradford on Avon - station was behind me.
