Rip Bridge

Rip Bridge is a concrete crossing that spans Brisbane Water on Australia's Central Coast, linking Booker Bay and Daleys Point. The structure stretches over 330 meters with a dual-lane design built from prestressed concrete.

Construction started in the early 1970s and was completed a few years later, creating a vital transport link across the waterway. The bridge has served local traffic continuously since opening to the public.

The Rip Bridge stands as an engineering example documented in the Institution of Engineers publication, contributing to the field of civil infrastructure studies.

The bridge is accessible by vehicle and on foot for daily traffic needs in the area. Expect congestion during peak hours, especially on weekends when local activity increases.

The bridge incorporates specific design elements to withstand local environmental conditions while maintaining a height of 15 meters above Brisbane Water.
