Did you know that the bridge road deck is made up of 124 box sections? There is an opening within each deck box, which allows you to walk through the bridge. Originally, access to the deck boxes was through a small hole, just large enough for an adult to wiggle through. Thankfully, we’ve created larger doorways now which are easier to access! | Humber Bridge

Humber Bridge: £3m safety project on iconic Yorkshire bridge 'progressing well'

MSNAndrew Spence

The road section of the Humber Bridge is made up of 124 steel boxes - each one is about 18 metres long and weighs about 140 tonnes – about twice as heavy as The Space Shuttle! The boxes were put together at an assembly yard just downstream from where the bridge was being built. Just east of the bridge, is a small jetty in the estuary – that’s where the assembly yard was. Once ready, the sections were then floated down the Humber on barges and lifted and fixed into place, as you can see on these

Did you know that Barton Anchorage, the larger of our two anchorages, weighs an incredible 300,000 tonnes — the same as 18,000 double-decker buses? Each anchorage plays a vital role by holding half the weight of the main cables, which support the road deck and all the traffic crossing the bridge. Inside, it’s one of the quietest places on the bridge, where sound echoes off the concrete walls, giving it a cathedral-like atmosphere. | Humber Bridge
