This is post #3 in the Port Elizabeth bridge series. The city's most imposing and best know bridge is the Van Stadens Bridge 35 km west of the city and also situated on the western boundary of the Nelson Mandela Bay metro. The 125 meter high, 340 meter long bridge was completed in 1971 and is the first of a serious of large arch bridges between Port Elizabeth and Plettenberg Bay. The others are the Storms River Bridge, Bloukrans Bridge, Groot River Bridge and Bobbejaan River Bridge, all in the Tsitsikamma.
Love the lines on these huge bridges. Walked under the Storms River Bridge and it's amazing.
