The website describes the rich history of the Bridgewater Bridge and the surrounding areas, from the early Tasmanian Aboriginal history to the convict-built causeway and the transformation into a modern transport corridor. Through stories, images and historic insights, explore the legacy of a crossing that has long connected people, places and generations.
