- This category represents websites for the A548 road-bridge spanning the Dee Estuary, north of Connah's Quay.
- When opened in 1998, it was the largest asymmetric cable-stayed bridge in the UK.
- The shape of its central support gave it the alternative name of the Wishbone,
- and because of the low population on the north bank, through Deeside Industrial Park, nick-named "the bridge to nowhere".
