Toomebridge

united kingdom

Toomebridge straddles the River Bann on the A6 Belfast-Londonderry route, serving as a key crossing point between Counties Antrim and Londonderry. The town sits 45km from Belfast with easy motorway access via the M22, and Belfast International Airport lies 20km southeast. Over 50 EV charging points serve the area's heavy through-traffic. The name derives from "Droichead Thuama" - bridge of the burial mound - referencing an ancient tumulus near the original crossing.
