Glad I wasn't asked this question in my 20 odd years as a driving instructor lol
My guess would be, the red triangle sign indicates its a warning sign. The two black triangles are showing the maximum gap between two points, the top one obviously being the most important .

7.10 Care should be taken to ensure that vehicles of the maximum length permitted by the Construction and Use Regulations will be able to pass safely under the bridge. This is particularly important where the road dips or hogs sharply or is on a curving alignment under the bridge. Changes in gradient might affect the headroom, e.g. the effective clearance will be reduced for a long wheel base vehicle spanning a dip. Where the road passing under a structure is on a sag curve, the headroom should be measured along the carriageway over a 25 m chord. |

You got me thinking and checking local signage around these parts.
Bridges where the bridge is flat and therefore uniform, the triangles are equal size. Therefore, headroom is the same across it's width. Arched bridges have the bigger top triangle and so must indicate that this is the maximum headroom at the center of the bridge. |
