Planned Closures
The Clifton Suspension Bridge is a Grade I listed structure which still has over 90% of its original ironwork.
Occasionally the maintenance tasks we carry out whilst caring for the bridge require us to close parts to traffic or pedestrians. We may have to introduce traffic controls – or in some cases, such as our annual inspection, a short-term diversion. We aim to keep disruption to a minimum, scheduling works for off-peak times. Scheduled maintenance activities including a partial closure of the bridge are listed here.
