There are three 'mid-stream' concrete 'bents', and concrete abutments onto the gravel road on either side of the river. It obviously floods over the level of the bridge, and the deck is 'tied' down to sawn timber on the bents with heavy angle iron. (Raising it a touch higher).

The Tiri Bridge was built in 1945.
Essential repairs to Tiri Bridge are estimated to cost $900,000.
Gloucester Council manages 179 bridges, 14 of which are timber.
It seems that this is a good place to put in your canoes if wanting to paddle downstream.
