Romford Bridge is located on the western approach to Verwood. A narrow bridge with poor approach visibility which suffers regular damage from vehicles as a result of its restricted width. The caravan parks located further to the west increases the use of this bridge by pedestrians walking to Verwood. The land surrounding Romford is SSSI and any improvement off-line will be a lengthy process.
