Welcome to our Timber Truss Bridge website, where you can explore each of the bridges that are a part of our collective heritage treasures and National Estate.
The timber truss bridges of NSW are managed by Transport for NSW on behalf of the people of NSW and the communities that rely on the bridges for transport connections. These bridges are globally unique in their technological development and as a record of NSW’s non-Aboriginal settlement. They are also beautiful structures, interesting to learn about and visit.
Timber truss bridges were vital to the colonial road networks of NSW. Built of locally sourced timber, they were complex engineering structures fine-tuned through experience and material science. Each bridge has a unique history – explore it here.
