Location

Runnymede Bridge is a motorway, A-road, pedestrian, and cycle bridge, built in the 1960s and 1980s and expanded in the 2000s, carrying the M25 and A30 across the River Thames near the uppermost end of the Staines upon Thames and Egham reach of the river. It is oriented north–south and is southwest of Heathrow Airport. It consists of Runnymede Bridge and New Runnymede Bridge; commonly referred to as one bridge.

It is one of three bridges which carry motorways across the Thames, the others being the M3 Chertsey Bridge and the M4 Thames Bridge, Maidenhead. (The Queen Elizabeth II Bridge at the Dartford Crossing is not classified as part of the M25.)
