The Tees Transporter Bridge
The Tees Transporter Bridge, sometimes called the Middlesbrough Transporter Bridge, is the most downstream bridge across the River Tees. It opened on 17 October 1911 and is the longest remaining transporter bridge in the world. It carries the A178 over the river. Its gondola crosses the river in 90 seconds; it can carry 200 people, 9 cars, or 6 cars and one minibus. The bridge was originally painted red but has been blue since 1961.
