Hi all
here is a thread about the gate way bridge in brisbane and they are building another one right beside it .

the reson is because they are getting to much traffic on the bridge
so what they aregoing to do is build a twin which will cost around $21 000 000 000 dollers
here is a pic of the origanal bridge

The Gateway Motorway extension opens this Weekend !!!!!!

The bridge is on track to open 2011. The approaches on each side are well advanced and the bridge sections should meet in the middle late this year.
