If you regularly commute across the bridge, having a Bridge Card could make your crossings cheaper and quicker. The more crossings you purchase, the cheaper it becomes! Order your Clifton Suspension Bridge Card here.
We are not-for-profit charity. By making a donation you can help fund new exhibits and displays in our Visitor Centre.
Clifton Suspension Bridge Trust, an independent, not-for-profit charity which was incorporated by an Act of Parliament in 1953. The Trust’s only source of revenue is the toll. It receives no funding from any other source, such as grants from central or local government, or from the national lottery.
Please note that we DO NOT take American Express or Diners Cards.
Any new Bridge Cards will be mailed out by 2nd Class post.
All applicants who require 3 or more Bridge Cards should arrange to collect them in person.
Empty and expired Clifton Suspension Bridge Cards can be reactivated and topped up online or by telephone.
As you approach the Clifton Suspension Bridge toll barriers, you will see arrows on the machine advising where to hold your card. Hold your Bridge Card over this, then the traffic light will change to green, and the barrier will rise. The amount of credit you have remaining on your card will be displayed on the screen.
If you change your mind about your purchase, you can return the unused Bridge Card to us within 14 days. We will issue a full refund upon receipt.
If you have used your Bridge Card within the 14 days and wish to return it, we will issue a refund, minus the crossings used, as well as deducting a £10 administration fee.
If your Bridge Card is lost or stolen, a new card can be sent to you with your crossing balance remaining. A charge of £10 will be made to cover the issuing of the new card.
Please contact us so we can update your card.
