The Entrance Bridge, Road bridge in Central Coast region, Australia
The Entrance Bridge is a concrete bridge in the Central Coast region that crosses the Tuggerah Lakes Entrance Channel. It connects two locations through 18 spans and includes separate lanes for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists.
A wooden bridge stood at this location from 1934 until 1965, but increasing traffic eventually made it inadequate. The current concrete structure was completed in 1968 and has served as its replacement since then.
The bridge serves as a main crossing point between two coastal communities and is used daily by many travelers on foot and by car. From here, visitors can look down at the water and experience the natural landscape of the region.
The footpath and cycleway are separated from vehicle traffic, offering a safe route for pedestrians and cyclists. It is best to cross during quieter times of day to avoid congestion.
Large pelicans gather daily beneath and around the bridge, offering visitors good opportunities to observe wildlife. These birds are regular visitors to the waterway and have become part of the scene.
