Sea Cliff Bridge / Ponte da Falesia

On our trip to the South Coast, we came across the new Sea Cliff Bridge. This bridge was built due to the fact that the old road was often closed by rock falls. The bridge runs parallel to the coast and is 665 metres long and 40 metres above the ocean.
Na nossa viagem a costa sul (de Sydney), encontramos a nova Ponte da Falesia. Esta ponte foi construida porque a estrada antiga estava muitas vezes fechada devido derrocadas frequentes. A ponte e' paralela a costa, tem 665 metros de comprimento e esta 40 metros acima do nivel do mar.
