Out of curiosity, is "bridge" is a British English term for "station"?
I've never heard the term "weigh bridge" before.

Actually, “Weighing bridge” is the non-US term for “Truck scale”.

@bobgrey1997 weighbridge is the English English term for truck scales in American English, as per this UK government website for instance: https://www.gov.uk/find-weighbridge

Weighbridge is what we usually call it here in Australia. Though we use Weigh Station or Inspection Station too, but Weighbridge is the name we commonly use down under.
