Burdekin Bridge (original) (raw)

dbo:abstract

The Burdekin Bridge (known as the Burdekin River Bridge or Silver Link) spans the Burdekin River between the towns of Ayr (locality of McDesme) to the north and Home Hill to the south, both in the Shire of Burdekin, Queensland, Australia. Located on the Bruce Highway which is part of Highway 1, it is an important link in the national road network. It is a road-rail bridge which provides high flood immunity link between north and south Queensland. The Bridge was completed in 1957. Construction began 10 years earlier in 1947. At 3,620 feet (1,103 m) in length, it is one of the longest multi-span bridges in Australia and longer than Brisbane's Story Bridge or New South Wales's Hawkesbury River Railway Bridge. It is 46 metres shorter than Sydney's Harbour Bridge. It is the only bridge in Australia to be built on sand. (en)
De Burdekin Bridge (ook wel de Silver Link) overspant de en verbindt de plaatsen Ayr, Queensland en Home Hill, Queensland. De brug werd opgeleverd in 1957. De bouw begon 10 jaar eerder, in 1948. Met zijn 1097 meter lengte is het een van de langste meervoudige overspanningsbruggen in Australië en is hij langer dan dan de Sydney Harbour Bridge, Brisbanes of New Yorks Brooklyn Bridge. (nl)
