Great bridge, bus lane only

Pros:
Uhh it works.
It's a bridge, it's gotta work or else...
Cons:
As a cyclist I'm bothered at how slow I'll go on the legal pedestrian path.
Following the path of other cyclists, I too decided it was in the interests of pedestrian safety and my own speed to go on the "Bus-Only" T-Way (Legally, bikes are not supposed to be there)
As a pedestrian, I'm bothered at the long walk (understandable... but still) and amount of bikes at dangerous speeds.
Wouldn't it be possible back then to create a cycleway, like the Sydney Harbour Bridge? Or to retrofit, just turn the road into a bus lane (which bikes are allowed on)?
Also it's jam packed...

This is an architecturally beautiful, landmark connecting bridge between Rhodes & Wentworth Point. However, let’s recognise that it is currently quite dangerous for pedestrians - particularly the elderly and children - with so many e-scooters and bikes riding unchecked & at dangerous speeds within the narrow pedestrian lane. It would be far preferable to require adult riders of bikes/e-scooters to use the parallel, grade separated T-way. This would be much safer for everyone.


Nice walk - great to have a T-Way right next to your walk. So well used.


Connects Wentworth Point and Sydney Olympic Park ferry Wharf, back to the other side of the river Eg Rhodes and the bike path.





My review of this bridge is purely from photography perspective. This bridge is really cool for night landscape photography.



Bennelong bridge connects Wentworth point on the west side to Rhodes on the east across the Parametta river. The bridge opened in 2016 is restricted to use by public transport and emergency vehicles. Private vehicles like cars are not allowed to use this bridge. Sydney transport bus 526 opens daily services across the bridge to Rhodes wayerside on all days. 533 also runs on a lesser frequency. Baylink shuttle buses (of Billergia and Marina square) operate free services from Wentworth point to Rhodes station on weekdays from 7 am to 7 pm.


Great spot for car parking but not fishing. Ferries goes by frequently, maybe night time is a better fishing spot. Nice view and park alongside.
