bernath 2 Posted February 18, 2020 The Tasman Bridge is a five-lane bridge crossing the Derwent River near Hobart, Tasmania. In January 5, 1975, the bridge was struck by the carrier Lake Illawarra with a cargo of 10,000 tons of zinc concentrate that caused two pylons and three sections of concrete decking, totaling 127 meters, to fall and sink the ship. Seven of the ship's crew members were killed, and five motorists died when four cars drove over the collapsed sections before the traffic was stopped. The wreck of Lake Illawarra still lies on the bottom covered with a concrete slab that does not present a navigation risk to smaller vessels. Link to comment
