It’s a heritage-listed steel cantilever bridge spanning the Brisbane River , the longest bridge of its kind in the country and which links up the northern and the southern suburbs of Brisbane The Bridge opened in 1940 and was tolled until 1947. It is named after prominent public servant, John Douglas Story.
