The future of the old Fremantle traffic bridge is up in the air, but locals behind “Save the Old Fremantle Bridge Alliance’ have called in an international expert to help save the bridge who admits the bridge is “not in tip0-top condition”. 

International Timber Bridge Expert Engineer and Wood Technologist Dr Dan Tingley has flown in from the U.S, he told Oliver Peterson ON 6PR Perth Live he believes the bridge still has a lot of life left in it. 

“I believe it’s got plenty of years of life left in it, a timber bridge doesn’t have use by date”, Dr Tingley said.

“Just because these timber bridges get old and grey and weathered looking doesn’t mean they  are unable to continue on their service”.
