Construction of the Myton Swing Bridge was undertaken by Redpath Dorman Long ltd (Part of British Steel)

I worked on this structure . Brooksy01% (talk) 14:03, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

...and if you can find a reliable source not original research, then go for it. But nowhere does it say that the construction was done by someone else. The bridge was engineered by Cleveland Bridge. Regards. The joy of all things (talk) 15:44, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bridgemaster

I was the first Bridgemaster at Myton Bridge. The Freeman Fox lead was Brian Heap, who at the time was also lead engineer for the Humber Bridge a short distance away. I remember seeing the Queen’s cavalcade crossing the Humber Bridge from my control tower on Myton Bridge. John Geekie IEng. MIIE. 94.72.198.86 (talk) 18:34, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
