Lamington Bridge, Arch bridge in Maryborough, Australia.

The Lamington Bridge spans the Mary River with eleven concrete spans measuring 16.6 meters each and stretches for a total length of 182.6 meters.

After floods destroyed the previous timber structure in 1893, engineer Alfred Barton Brady designed this concrete bridge, which opened on October 30, 1896.

The bridge received its name from Lord Lamington, the Governor of Queensland, and represents an early example of concrete bridge construction in Australia.

The bridge connects Gympie Road in Tinana to Ferry Street in Maryborough, facilitating transportation across the Mary River for vehicles and pedestrians.

The structure incorporates multiple steel rails within its concrete composition, making it one of the first bridges in Australia to use this reinforcement method.
