The Sydney Harbour Bridge is a steel through arch bridge that connects the northern and southern shores of Sydney Harbour in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

 

Build your own version of the Sydney Harbour Bridge using 1,751 The Atom Brick mini bricks and learn about how the bridge was constructed in real life! See how bricks can be used to recreate iconic and historic landmarks!

 

Constructed using over 53,000 tons of steel and 6 million rivets, the bridge took 8 years to construct and opened in 1932. The bridge is composed of two 28-panel arch trusses and it is one of the largest steel-arch bridges in the world with a span of 1,650 ft (500m) and a total length of 3,770 ft (1,149 m).

 

Today it is an iconic Australian landmark that carries train, vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian traffic.
