The Transporter Bridge

Transporter Bridge July 2008

The city's most famous landmark has been closed for almost two years on health and safety grounds. I seems it needs a new rail system for the gondola to travel on and there are repairs needed to the main structure before it can re-open. It is a Grade 1 listed structure and CADW have announced they intend to give a a grant of £75,000 towards the bridge refurbishment.

It is good to know that this magnificent structure is being preserved for future generations and enabling it to keep it's place in the city's history.
