This is another pedestrian suspension bridge crossing the Murray River. Like most suspension bridges, no visit is complete without making it shake a little!

This bridge has additional side stays to prevent excessive movement. All bridges, including concrete, masonry and steel, must flex (or otherwise suffer brittle failure), but usually flex is only noticed on suspension bridges.
This bridge is anchored in concrete blocks on the western side whilst the eastern side has not only an anchor block, but tensioning turnbuckles as well.
A number of photographs will show some detail of this bridge.
