 The bridge reopened to rail traffic (albeit with only a single line of rails and with reduced speed) on 30 January 1972. Over subsequent months the original box tubes were removed and the stonework of the towers was restored. The original deck below the rail lines was cosmetically restored. In 1980, almost 10 years after the fire, the upper road level opened, carrying a single-carriageway section of the A55 road.
