The second phase of work on the Menai Suspension Bridge is progressing following the installation of the scaffold under the bridge known as the Aerotruss.
In order to undertake works to address an immediate safety risk posed by unsecured communication cables beneath the bridge, and to put in measures to ensure the safety of the workforce on the bridge, a short full closure of the bridge will take place next week with a lane closure before and after.
The cables, which provide communications links with Anglesey and Ireland, must be secured before further work can continue.
A single lane closure will be in place from 13 May 2026 until 22 May 2026 between 10am and 6pm each day. Traffic lights will be in place to manage traffic during this time. The full bridge closure will be from 2pm Friday 15 May until 6pm Saturday 16 of May.
Pedestrians and dismounted cyclists will be able to cross the bridge during the closure. Diversion during the closure will be available via the Britannia Bridge.
