The Severn
Bridges Visitor Centre
The
Centre was opened in June 1998 and closed in 2009 pending
relocation to a new site.
The Severn Bridges
Trust will continue to provide information via this
website pending at the provision of a new Centre which
may be some years away.
This
website is a source for educational
information on the Severn Bridges (including their
history, information on traffic conditions, tolls and
the local weather), bridges generally, engineering,
designers, constructors, the local environment,
engineering careers and much more.
The
Centre location at Severn
Beach still provides car parking for those taking the spectacular walk along the estuary. It
is a very short distance from the public footpath and
cycle route along the Binn Wall, which affords excellent
views of the bridges.
