    • Sydney Harbour Bridge is the world's largest (but not longest) steel arch bridge, and, in its beautiful harbour location, has become a renowned international symbol of Australia.
    It's total length including approach spans is 1149 metres and it's arch span is 503 metres. The top of the arch is 134 metres above sea level and the clearance for shipping under the deck is a spacious 49 metres. The total steelwork weighs 52,800 tonnes, including 39,000 tonnes in the arch. The 49 metre wide deck makes Sydney Harbour Bridge the widest Longspan Bridge in the world. Just massive.

     Really enjoyed reading your insights on lovely Sydney. How nice that you and your daughter had a week there to share the beauty. Your photography is certainly stunning, Rosie.    		aussiedoug Sat Apr 30, 2005 08:13 UTC
     Featherdale is only about 15-20 mins WSW of us & the best place in or near Sydney to get up close with Australian native animals. Do they still have a Wedge Tailed Eagle out there?
