My Experience Crossing the Transporter Bridge for BlindVoice UK

On Saturday 11 th June 2005 I set out to cross the enormous Transporter Bridge. I was doing this to raise money for BlindVoice UK who help blind and visually impaired people.

The bridge is 200 feet high and over 500 feet wide. When I got to the bridge it seemed much higher than I thought. I didn't realise that you could look through the steps and see the river beneath my feet. As I climbed higher, the steps became steep ladders and you could still see the river below.

When I got to the top I could see the walkway between the 2 towers was also transparent. There was no solid floor beneath my feet. The river was still visible far, far below. It was a bit scary but I managed to cross from one side of the Tees to the other. The steps downward seemed steeper than before as I started to descend. After what seemed a long time I eventually got back to the ground.

This was a scary but exhilarating experience. Even better I raised over £170 for a cause I believed in. This was a morning well spent.
