'It's never a dull day at the Bridge' - Clifton Suspension Bridge's Bridgemaster talks to us about his role

We had the opportunity to talk with Clifton Suspension Bridge‘s Bridgemaster, Tristan Ralph, about his role and the ongoing maintenance works at the Bridge.

Tristan Ralph officially took over the role of Clifton Suspension Bridge‘s Bridgemaster from his predecessor, Trish Johnson, last Christmas.

Tristan, who has lived in Bristol for 25 years, described his new role as the “ultimate job” for a bridge engineer.

Three months on, BristolWorld had the opportunity to catch up with Tristan about his role and the vital maintenance work happening at Clifton Suspension Bridge.
