The majority of these were timber structures, with the occasional use of stone piers. The first bridge constructed in NSW was built in 1788. The bridge was a simple timber bridge constructed over the Tank Stream, near what is today the intersection of George and Bridge Streets in the Central Business District of Sydney. Soon after it was washed away and needed to be replaced. The first "permanent" bridge in NSW was this bridge's successor. This was a masonry and timber arch bridge with a span of 24 feet erected in 1803 (Figure 1.1). However this was not a triumph of colonial bridge engineering, as it collapsed after only three years' service. It took a further five years for the bridge to be rebuilt in an improved form. The contractor who undertook this work received payment of 660 gallons of spirits, this being an alternative currency in the Colony at the time (Main Roads, 1950: 37) Figure 1.1 “View of Sydney from The Rocks, 1803”, by John Lancashire (Dixson Galleries, SLNSW).

    WestConnex Delivery Authority WestConnex M4 East Homebush Bay Drive to Parramatta Road and City West Link State Significant Infrastructure Application Report November 2013 WESTCONNEX M4 East Homebush Bay Drive to Parramatta Road and City West Link State Significant Infrastructure Application Report WestConnex Delivery Authority November 2013 Document controls 2106552A-TPT-RPT-005 RevE_M4East_TAGGED_2010 Executive summary The NSW Government is proposing to upgrade and extend the M4 Motorway from Homebush Bay Drive, Homebush, to Parramatta Road and City West Link (Wattle Street), Haberfield. The M4 East project would involve: • Extension of the widening of the M4 Motorway east of Homebush Bay Drive to Concord Road and the western tunnel portal. • Two three-lane tunnels (of about five kilometres in length) for both east-bound and west-bound directions between Powells Creek, North Strathfield and Parramatta Road, Haberfield. • Modifications to the grade separated interchange at Concord Road. • Entry and exit ramps between the tunnel and the surface road network at Concord Road, Parramatta Road and City West Link. The NSW Government has established the WestConnex Delivery Authority (WDA) to deliver the WestConnex scheme. The Authority has been established as an independent public subsidiary corporation of Roads and Maritime Services (RMS). For the purpose of this initial planning application for the M4 East project, RMS will be the proponent. The WDA may exercise proponent functions for and on behalf of RMS in due course. The project is a component of the WestConnex scheme, a proposed 33 kilometre integrated motorway to link Sydney’s west with Sydney Airport and the Port Botany precinct. WestConnex will extend the M4 Motorway east to the Camperdown area and south to Sydney Airport and duplicate the existing M5 East.
