Now that a tunnel is on the way (I think), should this article be moved to Brisbane River crossings? Or maybe something different.-- Commander Keane 10:05, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
What about bridges further upstream, such as Colleges Crossing, Mount Crosby Wier, Kholo Bridge (each have at least one side in Brisbane, and cross the Brisbane River). (See UBD Map 193 / 194) or Maps (though not named google maps)

According to the book The Brisbane River: A pictoral history this bridge is actually called the Indooroopilly Railway Bridge. It opened in 1895, two years after the 1893 floods destroyed the previous railway bridge, which was called the Albert Railway Bridge. Still in use today, it makes the Indooroopilly Railway Bridge the oldest bridge to cross the Brisbane River. I will update this page and the Brisbane bridges template as well as add some excellent historical references to the Brisbane River page, asap. - Shiftchange ( talk) 11:50, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
The coords for this are actually for Kholo Crossing, probably a copy-and-paste error, so I removed them. I cannot find McMullen Road on a map, but from the description of being between Borallon and Lake Manchester, I suspect it is 27°29′58″S 152°42′33″E / 27.49938°S 152.70915°E which is near (the significantly named) Hills Crossing Reserve (according to Google Maps and when you look in satellite mode, there is a definite shallow area which appears to roughly correspond with the ends of two roads on either side of the river. Can anyone confirm those coords? and provide an explanation of why it's called McMullen's Road? Kerry ( talk) 04:30, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
Could somebody from Brisbane with an interest in railways please review the entries for the two Albert Bridges and the Indooroopilly Railway Bridge. One article says HC Stanley built the original in 1876, which seems unlikely, and another that IRB replaced the lost Albert bridge: again, not true, it added to the replacement Albert. On this page, and the main articles, the same image is clearly being used to illustrate two quite different bridges. Protozoon ( talk) 08:37, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

Is the Kholo Bridge image actually the Mount Crosby weir? 139.130.187.106 ( talk) 04:05, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
Google Maps, street view shows a sign with the name "Geoff Fisher Bridge" for the Brisbane Valley Highway, at 27⁰26'13"S 152⁰38'00"E (between Banks Creek Road and Wivenhoe Pocket Road). Is this sufficient authority to update the entry for this crossing?
