Prince Alfred Bridge, Truss bridge in Gundagai, Australia
The Prince Alfred Bridge spans 922 meters across the Murrumbidgee River with three metal truss sections and timber approach spans connecting Gundagai to South Gundagai.
Built between 1864 and 1867 by Francis Bell, the bridge remained the longest in New South Wales until the Sydney Harbour Bridge construction in 1932.
The bridge location marks where Charles Sturt first crossed the Murrumbidgee River, establishing a vital transport link between Sydney and Melbourne.
While the timber section was removed in 2021, the heritage-listed road abutments and the iron span continue to serve local traffic needs.
The bridge features cast iron piers manufactured at Fitzroy Iron Works in Mittagong, representing early Australian iron production achievements.
