Fremantle Traffic Bridge

The Fremantle Traffic Bridge carries Queen Victoria Street over the Swan River, linking the suburbs of North Fremantle and Fremantle in Perth, Western Australia.

With the 1866-built bridge connecting North Fremantle and Fremantle in urgent need of replacement, work commenced on a replacement in November 1937.

[3][4][5] Construction of a replacement bridge commenced in mid-2024 with completion scheduled for 2026.

[6] In August 2021, the project was altered with the new bridge to be built to the west of the current bridge rather than the east.
