THE ADVANCE OF THE EAST COAST OF THE NORTH ISLAND OF NEW ZEALAND: THE FERRO-CONCRETE RAILWAY AND TRAFFIC BRIDGE NOW IN COURSE OF CONSTRUCTION ACROSS THE NAPIER INNER HARBOUR, IN CONNECTION WITH THE NAPIER-GISBORNE RAILWAY EXTENSION SCHEME.

December 1916. The Westshore road and rail bridge, which still stands today. One of only three parallel road-rail bridges in NZ – the others at Inangahua and Arahura.
