Fig Tree Bridge, Road bridge in New South Wales, Australia

The Fig Tree Bridge extends across the Lane Cove River with a concrete girder structure, connecting Hunters Hill to Linley Point in Sydney's metropolitan area.

The current bridge, opened in September 1963, replaced an iron truss bridge from 1885, marking a shift in transportation infrastructure development.

The bridge incorporates a memorial featuring the opening wheel from the original structure, preserving local engineering heritage for future generations.

The structure carries Burns Bay Road and includes separate paths for pedestrians and cyclists, serving approximately 19,000 vehicles daily without toll charges.

The bridge contains concrete piers specifically engineered to support two additional traffic lanes, demonstrating forward-thinking infrastructure planning.
