Garratt Road Bridge, Footbridge and road bridge across Swan River in Perth, Australia
The Garratt Road Bridge consists of two parallel structures spanning 237 meters across the Swan River, connecting Bayswater and Ascot with timber piles support.
The first section of Garratt Road Bridge opened on New Year's Day 1935, while a second parallel bridge was added in 1972 to handle increasing traffic.
The bridge location held significance in Aboriginal mythology before European settlement and later facilitated access to Ascot Racecourse in the 1880s.
The upstream bridge carries southbound traffic and pedestrians, while the downstream structure manages northbound vehicles, each measuring 8.7 meters in width.
The structure contains 38 spans supported by 37 piers and features large-diameter pipes along its outer edges for additional utility purposes.
