Australia's Bridges: The William Jolly Bridge across the Brisbane River in Queensland (3)

March 2011 (-27.469 deg., 153.016 deg.) William Jolly Bridge
In Brisbane the river crossings have nice details and they are very well maintained. For instance, the William Jolly Bridge is in good shape despite being 80 years old. We can see some discoloration at the bottom of the pier perhaps due the recent floods. Otherwise, it is in excellent condition. The people of Brisbane must take great pride in their infrastructure and in their river. That's also apparent in their willingness to get the best designers for new bridge projects and to take risks on new designs.
