About the Meadowbank Railway Bridge
The old Parramatta River Railway Bridge (also called the John Whitton Bridge or Meadowbank-Rhodes Railway Bridge) at Meadowbank was converted for pedestrian and cycle use when the modern railway bridge across the Parramatta River was opened in 2000.
The bridge can be reached from Blaxland Rd, Rhodes or Bay Drive, Meadowbank (on the north side of the river), and by ferry from the nearby Meadowbank wharf. It links Ryde in the north with Homebush Bay and Olympic Park in the south.
Meadowbank Park and Shepherds Bay are immediately north of the bridge; Meadowbank TAFE is nearby. A 3 km shared pathway including a separated cycleway on the road bridge over Parramatta River takes the rider in a loop around Homebush and Shepherds Bays. These are popular areas for walking and exercising and can be very busy.
