Windsor Bridge

Windsor Bridge is a road crossing that spans the Hawkesbury River and connects the northern and southern parts of Windsor in New South Wales. The structure has a straightforward design with stone and metal elements that carry traffic across the water.

The bridge opened in 1874 and marked a major step forward in transportation for the New South Wales region. Since then it has remained a vital crossing point and has adapted to the area's changing needs over time.

The bridge links two parts of town where Indigenous connections remain visible in local stories and the surrounding landscape. Walking across it, you sense the continuity between the colonial past and the present community.

The bridge is accessible to all vehicle types and serves as the main route for daily commuters and commercial traffic. It is helpful to cross during off-peak hours to avoid congestion if you are planning to drive through.

The construction shows typical methods from the 1800s, with stone walls and metal beams that still function well today. Many visitors overlook the fact that the original structure remains largely unchanged and still carries thousands of vehicles daily.
