Clifton Suspension Bridge    

 

Junction Digital has teamed up with the Clifton Suspension Bridge Trust and The Avon Gorge & Downs Wildlife Project to bring you a new way to view the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge and the environment surrounding it.

 

Using the latest mobile technology you can now follow a video tour on your PDA, MP3 player or compatible video phone, which takes you beyond where the eye can see – into the hidden depths of the bridge! Learn more about its history, how it was constructed and how it withstands the demands of the 21st century, all from the convenience of your handset whilst you stand there and take in the view.

 

Packed with archive footage, The Interactory takes visitors under the bridge and up to the top of the towers. It also covers the history of the Avon Gorge and its wildlife, as well as outlining what you can see in the Gorge today.

 

Anthony Story, MD of Junction Digital, says: We were really grateful to receive funding from South West Screen to provide this nifty tool so visitors can both discover the secrets of the Bridge and marvel at the beauty of the Gorge surrounding it in a very accessible way.

 

Ideal for the passing visitor and the inquisitive tourist alike, this tour is a great new way to explore this famous landmark and surrounding area, and is also a fantastic educational tool.

 

To view the tour go to www.interactory.com

 

The Interactory is being launched on Saturday 8th December which marks the anniversary of the opening of the Clifton Suspension Bridge.
