Colleges Crossing, Concrete beam bridge in Chuwar, Australia

The three-span bridge stretches across the Brisbane River, connecting both sides of the waterway while providing passage for motor vehicles.

The construction of this bridge in 1894 replaced a wooden structure that had been destroyed by flooding in the area.

The bridge bears the name of George College, an early settler who acquired land on the northern bank of the Brisbane River in 1854.

During water releases from Wivenhoe Dam or major floods, the road across the bridge becomes inaccessible, requiring alternate transportation routes.

The bridge connects to a recreational reserve that features a boat ramp, playground, and spaces for fishing along the Brisbane River.
