Tom Uglys Bridge, Steel and concrete bridge in southern Sydney, Australia

The Tom Uglys Bridge spans 499 meters across the Georges River, connecting the St George area at Blakehurst with Sutherland Shire at Sylvania.

The bridge replaced a ferry service in 1929, becoming the longest bridge in Australia at that time and requiring a toll until 1952.

The Georges River, which the bridge crosses, held the name Tucoerah among the Indigenous Dharawal and Dharug communities before European settlement.

The dual bridge system includes dedicated pathways for pedestrians and cyclists, with the newer 1987 structure providing four additional traffic lanes.

The two parallel bridges diverge from being 5 meters apart at the northern end to 62 meters apart at the southern end.

Location: New South Wales

Made from material: steel, concrete
