New Zealand's Bridges: Armagh Street Bridge across the Avon River in Christchurch

March 2011 (-43.529 Degrees, 172.634 Degrees) Armagh Street Bridge
The Armagh Street Bridge is another reinforced concrete arch bridge (with a stone facing and a cast iron railing) located in Christchurch's Central Business District. There is a stone plaque on one of the abutment pedestals engraved with the name of the mayor and the date the bridge was built (1883). A tape hanging from the railing closed the bridge after the earthquake.
