The ACT Government has installed a temporary Smith's Road bridge over the Gudgenby River. A "Bailey's Bridge" is a prefabricated portable military bridge that can span 60 meters (200 ft) and designed to support the weight of tanks. I went for a trip down to the river to check on the progress today and took a few photos. Workmen were busy building the road approach ramps to the bridge.

The little bridge's history:

• A newspaper clipping from the bridge's 1933 opening.
• Photos of the bridge before the flood.
• Photos of the damaged bridge after the flood.
