Thought this might be of interest to the engineering guys here. The bridge is about 100 years old. And one shot of a new bridge 500 yds upstream, about 10 years old

The Newport Transporter Bridge (Welsh: Pont Gludo Casnewydd) is a transporter bridge that crosses the River Usk in Newport, South Wales. It is a Grade I listed structure. Designed by French engineer Ferdinand Arnodin, it was built in 1906 and opened by Godfrey Charles Morgan, 1st Viscount Tredegar on 12 September 1906. The span is an example of the very rare transporter bridge concept, of which only eight remain in use worldwide.
The bridge is the crossing lowest on the River Usk.
