Recently, our team in Newport welcomed a group of students from France to the historic Newport Transporter Bridge as part of their global study on transportation bridges. We were proud to support their visit by providing essential PPE and assisting with questions as they explored the structure. Thanks to Newport Norse, a talk was delivered on the bridge’s history and the students got the opportunity to have a close look at the design and engineering involved in the construction. #FutureEngineers #NewportTransporterBridge #InspiringTheNextGeneration
