This is a film of a visit I made to the Transporter Bridge on 12th July 2013, I hope you enjoy watching.

The bridge opened on 12th September 1906 to link the residential district of Pillgwenlly, Newport on the West side of the River Usk with the main industrial area and docks on the East side. This type of bridge was chosen, as the tidal nature of the river prevented use of a ferry and it did not interfere with tall-masted ships navigating the river. It is a Grade I Listed structure, being the largest and oldest example in the UK and one of only eight, which remain in the world.
