Information

The first road bridge across the lower Murray was completed at Murray Bridge in 1879.

The township of Murray Bridge was originally known as Mobilong and later as Edwards Crossing, before being renamed as Murray Bridge in 1924, deriving its name from the road and railway crossings over the River Murray.

Today, Murray Bridge is a city on the Princes Highway, the main road transport link between Adelaide and Melbourne.

The city services a farming area including dairy, pigs, chickens, cereal crops and vegetables (including "stay crisp lettuces").
