Everything about Murrumbidgee River Rail Bridge Wagga Wagga totally explained
Murrumbidgee River Rail Bridge is located over the
Murrumbidgee River in
Wagga Wagga, New South Wales. The bridge was the only 4 span wrought iron lattice truss bridge constructed and is the second oldest bridge out of the twelve related wrought iron lattice truss series bridges in Australia. The bridge was opened on the
Main Southern railway line in 1881, each of the 4 lattice truss spans is 48.5
metres (159 ft) long which joined onto the what was thought to be the longest timber viaduct in Australia which has since been replaced. The bridge is of major importance to the history of bridge engineering in Australia.
The bridge was removed and replaced with a new
concrete bridge which was removed during a 4 day shut down from
30 December 2006 to
3 January 2007. Wrought iron lattice railway bridge was cut away using
Oxy cutters. One cut section of the bridge was given to
Tumbarail located at
Ladysmith.
