Endeavour Bridge, Road bridge in southern Sydney, Australia
The Endeavour Bridge spans across the Cooks River near Botany Bay, connecting the suburbs of Mascot and Kyeemagh through General Holmes Drive.
The bridge construction was completed and officially opened in May 1951 as part of the infrastructure development supporting the expansion of Kingsford-Smith Airport.
The structure bears the name of HMS Endeavour, the vessel that carried James Cook during his first exploration of Australia's eastern coast in 1770.
The bridge underwent modifications in 1963 to expand from two separate two-lane structures into a single six-lane crossing to accommodate increased traffic flow.
Located at the mouth where Cooks River flows into Botany Bay, the bridge forms part of the A1 route, supporting transportation to Australia's largest airport.
