Horseshoe Bridge, Road bridge in Perth, Australia
The Horseshoe Bridge carries William Street traffic over railway lines through a curved structure with four lanes and pedestrian walkways.
Built between 1902 and 1904, the bridge addressed the need to connect Perth's central business district with northern suburbs across expanding railway infrastructure.
Cast iron swan sculptures mounted on the bridge's end piers reflect the connection to the Swan River and Western Australian identity.
The bridge supports approximately 18,000 vehicles daily while providing direct access to Yagan Square and Perth's central business district.
Glass-enclosed arches along Wellington Street previously housed retail spaces, creating an integrated commercial corridor within the bridge structure.
