Indooroopilly Railway Bridge, Railway bridge in Indooroopilly, Australia.

The Indooroopilly Railway Bridge spans 208 meters across the Brisbane River with two equal spans supported by a central pier.

The bridge construction occurred between 1955 and 1957 as part of the expansion project to increase capacity on the Ipswich railway line.

The bridge connects the residential areas of Indooroopilly and Chelmer, enabling thousands of daily commuters to access Brisbane's central business district.

The structure undergoes maintenance work until 2025, with new composite materials replacing timber components to increase stability for passenger and freight services.

The bridge construction involved unconventional engineering methods, including the use of dozers and an old ship for structural support during installation.
