Bridges

Description
As a city built around the environs of the Avon River and Heathcote River, bridges are a common feature in Christchurch. As the city developed and the use of motor vehicles increased, many of the city's earliest bridges were replaced with those of modern designs. Some, however, have managed to survive, and contribute to the heritage of Christchurch.
