Tarban Creek Bridge

The Tarban Creek Bridge carries Burns Bay Road over Tarban Creek, between the suburbs of Hunters Hill and Huntleys Point. Tarban Creek Bridge is a concrete arch bridge which opened in 1965. It formed a missing link between the Gladesville Bridge and Fig Tree Bridge. It was originally planned to form part of a north-western expressway, which was never built.

  4. This is part of the Seven Bridges walk in October, Jim. Not a good walk all the way round though, because so much is along busy roads.
