It's an interesting and rather unique experience. Must walk over the top, unless you are afraid of heights of course. It's 50 metres high and it's a mesh floor so can see all the way down while walking across. There are 278 steps on each side so fitness is also needed beside courage. The wind is very strong at top, be careful with loose items, phones and cameras. In exchange for the effort the view from top is beautiful, can see the movement mechanism, and there's an easter egg from the past around the middle

The transporter bridge is a Newport icon, with a beautiful gondola taking you over the Usk from West to East Newport & back again. A walk over the top is recommended (if you can manage the steps) for fantastic views of the estuary and city. It is closing in September 2020 for a couple of years of much-needed maintenance and hopefully a brand new, improved visitor centre. They are still fundraising for the money. Go and visit whilst you can. The Newport Museum & Art Gallery has a featured display about the Transporter Bridge, if you want to to visit there after your trip.

Oh my goodness so good I had to go twice. This is closing though the end of Sept 2020 for 2 years so if your thinking of going do go. The climb up was awesome and my nephew was scared but was jubilant he done it. My mother in law 83 went to the top magic she done it. Felt like an achievement. Only 4.00 and go up and on the pagola as many times as you want for the day. Closed Monday and Tues. The pagola ferry great. The engineering is awesome to look at. Amazing.

One hell of a view, wonderful piece of engineering and history. Closed for upgrade for the next few years, but keep an eye out for when it reopens

A spur of the moment decision with my daughter. Staff were so friendly and helpful. A superb experience exploring more fantastic Welsh history in South East Wales. Mind blowing views from mind blowing Georgian engineering. The toilet on top is real!
