Ideraway Creek Railway Bridge, Railway bridge in North Burnett Region, Australia

The Ideraway Creek Railway Bridge stretches across a gorge with five concrete arches, two steel spans, and six concrete piers on the Mungar-Monto Line.

Chief Engineer William Pagan designed this railway bridge in 1906, incorporating materials from the Burdekin River Bridge to reduce construction costs.

The bridge represents early twentieth-century railway engineering in Queensland, displaying technical solutions for crossing challenging terrain in rural Australia.

The structure spans 150 feet with timber longitudinals and concrete supports, demonstrating the combination of materials used in Australian railway construction.

This deck-type pin-jointed fishbelly truss bridge remains the longest of its design in Queensland and stands as the only example in Australia.
