Construction of the 14-kilometre Coffs Harbour Bypass has reached its halfway point, with over half of the project's 21 bridges now completed.
The twin bridges over the North Coast Railway Line are the longest and highest for the bypass, measuring 250 metres long and 16.5 metres high.
The bypass will reduce travel times by up to 12 minutes by allowing motorists to avoid 12 sets of traffic lights through Coffs Harbour’s CBD.
The project is one of the largest regional infrastructure projects on Australia’s east coast.
