Contractor appointed for vital works on Menai Suspension Bridge ahead of bicentenary

Hull bridge works specialist Spencer Group has been selected to revitalise the Menai Suspension Bridge ahead of the structure’s bicentenary.

The Hull engineering firm, which has carried out maintenance and repair works on some of the UK’s most iconic crossings, has been awarded a series of contracts for further major refurbishment works on the historic Welsh crossing ahead of marking 200 years in 2026.

The Grade I listed structure is the second oldest operational vehicular suspension bridge in the world. Opened in 1826, it crosses the Menai Strait between the island of Anglesey and mainland North Wales.
