The bridge is over the Willochra Creek and is a replica built in 1990 to replace the
original bridge built in the 1890’s and damaged in the 1946 flood.

Located in a semi-arid to arid region with overall low annual rainfall and highly variable runoff,
the Willochra river system is ephemeral. The catchment’s main watercourse is the
Willochra Creek, which originates at the eastern base of Mt Remarkable.

Willochra Creek is approximately 205 kilometres long and flows north from the town of Melrose
through the Willochra Plain then north westerly until it discharges into the saline Lake Torrens.

Threats to the sustainability of the catchments water resources include reduced surface water
run-off, shorter seasonal flows, lack of flow during drought periods, and increased irregularity
in the frequency and volume of flow events.

The traditional owners of the area are the Ngadjuri peoples he first European explorer
to sight the plain was in September 1842 [Wiki]

I got Dick to stand in the middle of the bridge for this shot.
