After enduring a years-long saga complicated by floods, the construction of a mountain biking bridge across the River Mersey in Tasmania's northwest is finally nearing completion. This eagerly anticipated project will soon be open, allowing the region's enthusiastic cyclists to cross the bridge. Notably, the bridge is also a record breaker, setting new standards for cycling infrastructure in the area.
