The Second Severn Crossing, officially named the Prince of Wales Bridge since 2018, is a cable-stayed bridge that spans the River Severn between England and Wales, opened in 1996 to supplement the traffic capacity of the Severn Bridge. The bridge has a total length of 5,128 meters and is wider than the Severn Bridge, with three lanes and a hard shoulder each way. The concession to operate the bridge was given to a consortium, which was required to take over the outstanding debt on the original Severn Bridge and to operate the two bridges as a single entity, with tolls set annually by the government.learn more on wikipedia
