This short film documents a trip to the Humber Bridge, Hull soon after its opening.
The film begins with a view towards the bridge from the side of a road. The next shots are taken from the car as it is travelling. The film records the journey over the bridge. There are views of the suspension towers and onto the river view. The tide is up, and there is a shot of the toll barrier.

The concrete structures and wires are also visible. There are shots of other people crossing the bridge by foot, and a long shot of a man inspecting the steel ropes and girders.
