Die Runcorn Railway Bridge, auch Britannia Bridge oder örtlich Queen Ethelfleda Viaduct, führt die Liverpool-Zweigstrecke der West Coast Main Line über den River Mersey und den neben ihm verlaufenden Manchester Ship Canal. Sie steht in der englischen Unitary Authority Borough of Halton zwischen den Orten Runcorn und Widnes an der Runcorn Gap genannten Engstelle des Flusses, bevor er in einem Ästuar an Liverpool vorbei in die Irische See mündet. Sie ist die letzte Brücke über den Mersey, da es in Liverpool zwar Tunnel, aber keine Brücken gibt.

Etwa 30 m östlich von ihr steht die Silver Jubilee Bridge, eine 1961 eröffnete Fachwerk-Bogenbrücke für den Straßenverkehr.

The Runcorn Railway Bridge, Ethelfleda Bridge or Britannia Bridge crosses the River Mersey at Runcorn Gap between Runcorn and Widnes in Cheshire, England. It is alongside the Silver Jubilee Bridge. The bridge is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a Grade II* Listed building. In 1861, Parliamentary approval for a railway crossing the Mersey was obtained by the London and North Western Railway (LNWR). The design for a bridge and viaducts was produced by William Baker, the company's chief engineer. In 1863, preparatory work for the bridge and approach viaducts commenced. The bridge was completed in 1868 and was opened for traffic on 10 October. The first goods traffic crossed the bridge on 1 February 1869 and the first passenger train on 1 April. The bridge has received few alterations. In 1965, the pedestrian footway alongside the railway was closed to the public but retained for maintenance access. The bridge is used by rail traffic on the Liverpool branch of the West Coast Main Line. The lines are electrified and 25 kV AC overhead lines installed. Starting in the 2010s, the bridge has undergone a lengthy maintenance programme that will extend its life for another 150 years.
