Redcliffe Bridge, Bristol, Road bridge in central Bristol, England
The Redcliffe Bridge spans the floating harbor with a central lifting mechanism that allows tall vessels to pass underneath the structure.
The bridge, constructed in 1938, required reconstruction in 1942 following damage sustained during World War II bombing raids over Bristol.
The bridge connects the historic Redcliffe district to the commercial center, serving as a link between different neighborhoods of Bristol.
Vehicles and pedestrians can cross the bridge daily, while maintenance periods occur regularly to ensure the lifting mechanism functions properly.
Until January 2021, the bridge remained in a fixed position for an extended period before performing a rare lifting operation for passing vessels.
