Historic Bridge Walks - Bridges over the Tees
This leaflet provides an insight into the unusual, impressive and noteworthy structures across the River Tees.
Today the River Tees is a port of some importance but this was not always so. Originally, it offered few, if any, natural advantages. As the Tees is set in a low lying landscape, a number of unusual bridges had to be built to overcome the conflict between land and water-based transport.
Bridges include:
- Transporter Bridge
- Newport Bridge
- Billingham Branch Bridge
- A19 Tees Viaduct
- Tees Barrage Bridge
- Infi nity Bridge
- Princess of Wales Bridge
- Victoria Bridge
- Tees Rail Bridge
- A66 Surtees Bridge
- Jubilee Bridge
- Yarm Masonry Bridge & Yarm Viaduct
