Andrew Nixon Bridge, Concrete beam bridge in St George, Queensland, Australia.

The Andrew Nixon Bridge stretches across the Balonne River, providing a crucial crossing point for vehicles and pedestrians along the Balonne Highway.

Construction of this concrete structure in 1953 replaced an earlier timber bridge from 1892, marking the advancement of transportation infrastructure in Queensland.

The bridge strengthens connections between regional communities in Queensland, supporting agricultural activities and local development across the Balonne River.

During flood events, the bridge becomes submerged when water levels reach 10.7 meters according to the St George flood gauge measurements.

The structure carries the name of Andrew Nixon, who built the original timber bridge at this location under a Queensland government contract in 1890.
