A view of McKillop Bridge from river level on the upstream side. The original bridge was washed away by a flash flood a day or so prior to its official opening, but was rapidly rebuilt with the road deck some 20 feet (6 metres) higher than originally designed. The bridge is rated at 20 tonnes but when my wife passed me in our 2 tonne SUV there was enough movement to give me concern.
A view of McKillop Bridge from its western approach. Located in East Gippsland, Victoria, and reached by a gravel road, that on its western side hugs the side of a mountain (passing oncoming traffic not recommended for the faint-hearted), the bridge was built in the early 1930s and is the only all weather crossing of the Snowy River in Victoria north of the Town of Orbost. The justification for the bridge was that cattle would not have to wait for the river to drop to a safe level before the cattle herds could cross the river safely. Thus they arrived at markets sooner and in better condition.
