Gundagai Bridge

Owners

Around this time the major activity in the valley was dairy farming on the rich river flats. This was hampered by the lack of good transportation. It wasn't until 1867 that there was a bridge, one of the longest in New South Wales, over the Murrumbidgee River at Gundagai (prior to that a ferry service had operated) and the branch railway line from Gundagai to Tumut was authorised as early as 1884 but wasn't completed until 1903.
