Iconic bridge of Hobart.
There is a bike lane/footpath over the bridge, but it is VERY narrow. Be careful how you go!

Tasman Bridge is the city’s main link between the eastern and western shores. Opened in 1965, the bridge includes pedestrian walkways on both sides running directly beside traffic lanes. Walking across feels exposed and noisy, but the elevation gives wide views over the river, Hobart skyline, and surrounding hills. The bridge is also closely tied to Hobart’s history following the 1975 Tasman Bridge disaster, when a cargo ship collision caused part of the bridge to collapse and temporarily split the city in two.
