The old saying goes that when you build a bridge, you tell your kids about it every time you drive over it.
Nobody warned our families that this one carries 20,000 trips a day.
We’re proud of the BridgePro crew who had a key part in building this bridge including the piers holding it all up. There were 100 or so BridgePro team that were part of the 1,000+ Tasmanians who got the job done.
It wasn’t too long ago that the first piles on the Bridgewater Bridge went in.
Today, there are 20,000 trips over the award-winning bridge each and every day.
One of the biggest projects Tasmania has ever built.
And built successfully because of the hard yakka of more than 1,000 Tasmanians.
Now to be enjoyed by our future generations.
We’ve come a long way as a State.
Yes, it’s important that we protect our lifestyle, and our way of life.
And by building big, and for the future, Tasmania’s best days will be ahead.
