Tees Transporter Bridge

Giant 1911 bridge that carried a hanging gondola across the Tees

A huge steel frame across the river, from which a gondola carrying cars and foot passengers was hauled from bank to bank. It is one of the largest transporter bridges in the world. It has been closed since 2019 for safety repairs, but it is still worth seeing from the riverbank, especially lit up at night.
