For those that don't know Bristol very well, the Clifton Suspension Bridge essentially links the city with North Somerset.
The Bristol side is in the Clifton area of the city, and the North Somerset side goes past Leigh Woods.
The white tent is on the Leigh Woods, or North Somerset, side of the bridge. You can see it is on the pedestrian walkway next to the toll barriers, where cars pay to cross the bridge.
A quieter scene now than it was earlier today but police are still on site and have put a new cordon in place on Gloucester Row which leads up to the bridge on the Clifton side.
Earlier, we sent a drone up above the Clifton Suspension Bridge.
Although the area is closed to the public, lots of police activity can be seen on the ground.
There is no indication of when the bridge will reopen yet, police said.
