The arch bridge over the Storms River in the Tsitsikamma was completed in 1958 and formed a major link in the National Route N2 between George and Port Elizabeth. The bridge is one of four great arch bridges crossing the deep gorges of the Tsitsikamma and is about 120 meters high. The river itself is a very short river and is only about 40 km in length. It has a big catchment area in the Tsitsikamma mountains and can rise drastically and come down in flood after the slightest of rain. Hence the name Storms River.Storms River Bridge

That is a very cool bridge. I like the form and your capture of it.
Nice alignment of the bridge just above the terrain.
Amazing Bridge….I always think of the people that it took to build it…
This is a great perspective of the bridge!
