To cut off what would otherwise be either a long detour up-valley from its location, or a shorter detour down-stream that would descend to the River Avon, a ferry crossing and ascent on the other side.
The Clifton Suspension Bridge had a long drawn out building history. The bridge was started in 1832 but not completed until 1864, over 30 years later.
The towers were made of pennant stone. The cables were long metal bars stuck together and the suspension cables were iron rods. The anchorages are concrete houses.
Total length, anchorage to anchorage 1,352 ft (414 m)
The Clifton Suspension Bridge -constructed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel- carries 4 million cars and other vehicles each year.
Isambard Kingdom Brunel designed the Thames Tunnel, Paddington Station, the Royal Albert Bridge, and the Clifton Suspension Bridge. He also designed ships.
Yes, the bridge is still used by over 4 million vehicles per year of up to 4 tons weight. This is because the engineers who completed the bridge in 1864, John Hawkshaw & W H Barlow, made it far stronger than originally designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, who had died in 1859. The bridge is his memorial, paid for by his fellow engineers.
