THE NEW KEMPSEY BRIDGE & BYPASS, 2-2013 FLOODS;


MACLEAY RIVER & NEW BYPASS BRIDGE & FLOOD 2-2013..jpg

 

This is supposed to be opened by Easter, there was a planned walk accross the bridge last sunday but that was cancelled.

Would have been a good time to view it if you didnt mind getting wet.

Hi Jim
looks good, but a bit hard to work out the clearance above the water level from the photo. Assume it is a 4 lane highway?
Will get to use it later this year.

 John , if you look mid wat up the pic & to the right of bridge there are buildings on a mound, just in front of this is the SWR road which passes under the suspended roadway.

Great photo. And my husband thinks it would be fun to drive across it when there's that much water! Needless to say, he comes from the Clarence and is used to floods. I was actually born in Kempsey and my brother was born during a flood when my father and a friend lay on their tummies to scoop up pumpkins floating down the flooded Macleay! Mum says the bridge had water over it the next day.
