Historic Spey Viaduct Collapses into River Spey in Moray The iconic Spey Viaduct, a former railway bridge completed in 1886, collapsed into the River Spey in Moray. The iron girder structure, now popular with cyclists and walkers, had one of its stone piers leaning and metalwork falling into the river. Questions arise about the bridge's maintenance as the local community mourns the loss of the beloved structure, essential for the Speyside Way trail and National Cycle Network.
