About

The Waimakariri Gorge Bridge is a bridge located on the Waimakariri River in Canterbury, New Zealand. The bridge connects the Selwyn and Waimakariri districts as it bridges the Waimakariri Gorge between the towns of Sheffield and Oxford, while the bridge itself lies in the locality of Bexley. The bridge carries the Inland Scenic Route and is one of seven bridges over the river, five of which carry road vehicles. It is the oldest bridge over the Waimakariri River.
