Australia’s US$36.7 million Sea Cliff Bridge will open this weekend, bypassing a section of the old road from Sydney which was prone to rock falls as big as 3,000t. The route from Sydney is popular with tourists visiting coastal villages on the edge of the Royal National Park to the North of Wollongong. The bridge has been built using the balanced cantilever method. It is 665m long and 41m above sea level at its highest point, giving spectacular views.
