The Prince Alfred Bridge was built in 1866, the first major crossing spanning the flood plains of the Murumbidgee River. A kilometre long,it formed part of the Hume Highway, the main Highway from Sydney to Melbourne, until it was replaced in 1976. The Prince Alfred Bridge is the longest timber viaduct in Australia and has been classified by the National Trust as a structure whose preservation is essential to Australia’s heritage. Despite this, it is in a precarious state. Hard to imagine it as a major Highway once! Have a fabulous Friday and an outstanding weekend. Stay safe and well.
