Our National Transport Delivery Plan 2022 to 2027 highlights the need to develop options to ensure the resilience of crossing the Menai Straights in a way that supports modal shift, aligned to tests set out in Welsh Government's response to the Roads Review. We have specifically written to the North Wales Transport Commission to look at options for crossing the Menai and they are due to report in the summer.
On the Britannia Bridge we are currently exploring options for a third tidal lane across it. In addition as the Bridge is more susceptible to restrictions or closure as a result of severe weather, specifically high winds, last year we undertook a further review of our high wind strategy and as a result amended the restriction thresholds resulting in the bridge remaining open for longer for HGV’s. Details of the procedures can be found at A55 Britannia Bridge High Winds | Traffic Wales
The Menai Suspension Bridge is now open to traffic up to 7.5 Tonnes, following completion of the recent emergency works. This is only a temporary arrangement until all the hangers are replaced with new units at which point it should then open to all traffic.
