Phillip Island Bridge

Phillip Island Bridge, Cantilever bridge in Bass Coast Shire, Australia

Phillip Island Bridge is a reinforced concrete cantilever bridge over Western Port, linking San Remo on the mainland with Newhaven on Phillip Island. It opened on 21 November 1969, replacing a 1940 suspension bridge. The bridge carries vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians between the Bass Coast mainland and the island.

A suspension bridge opened on 29 November 1940 between San Remo and Newhaven, with a 540-metre length, a 168-metre main span and cables previously used on a Sydney North Shore bridge. It had two lanes, no footpaths and six pedestrian refuges, and tourist coaches had to unload passengers because of weight limits. In April 1966 John Holland won the contract for a reinforced concrete replacement, which opened on 21 November 1969.

This crossing has become part of local identity, symbolizing the link between island and mainland communities. Many residents and visitors view it as a gateway moment that marks the beginning of their arrival on Phillip Island.

Visitors can walk, cycle, or drive across, enjoying views of Western Port along the way. Traffic can be heavy during peak times, especially on weekends and summer months, so allow extra time during these periods.

The 1940 suspension bridge had a main span of 168 metres, and its cables had previously been used on a bridge on Sydney's North Shore. Coaches had to unload passengers because of weight limits.
