Project information

Background

Boyds Bay Bridge was built over Terranora Creek in Tweed Heads in 1985. The eight-span concrete bridge provides a vital link across Terranora Creek and is used by almost 30,000 motorists each day.

The bridge was built to replace the original Boyds Bay Bridge, which was completed and opened to traffic in 1934. The original bridge, which was part of the Pacific Highway, was a steel and concrete girder structure with a vertical lift span.
