This rail bridge, opened in May this year, is named after Sister Mary MacKillop who founded the Sisters of St Joseph at Penola in 1866. In 1867 she established a school adjacent to the church in Dale Street, Port Adelaide.
She is acknowledged for her commitment to the welfare and education of the disadvantaged and is the first Australian to have been made a saint within the Roman Catholic Church.

I love to watch them open and close....Hughugs
Nice bridge shot. I just posted a vertical lift bridge . . . if you like bridges. The vertical lift bridge is temporarily replacing one that looks like your Port River Expressway Bridges.
Great capture. Thanks for your story behind this picture!
Love the 1st photo of the bridge taken from a different angle.
