LH Ford Bridge, Road bridge in Dubbo, Australia
The LH Ford Bridge extends 613 meters across the Macquarie River, featuring two lanes for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrian access through Dubbo.
Following its completion in September 1969, the concrete structure became the fourth longest highway bridge in New South Wales at that time.
The bridge carries the name of Les Ford, a former Mayor of Dubbo and Member of the New South Wales Parliament who served the local community.
Recent engineering works in 2018 added two support piers in the river to reinforce the center span and extend the structural life of the bridge.
The bridge maintains a load capacity of 68 tonnes and replaced an earlier wooden structure that previously connected the sections of Dubbo.
