The bridge connecting Ayr and Home Hill in Queensland is the Burdekin Bridge, also known as the Burdekin River Bridge or the Silver Link. 
This road and rail bridge spans the Burdekin River, linking the two towns and serving as a vital part of the Bruce Highway, which is part of Highway 1. 
Completed in 1957, the Burdekin Bridge is one of the longest multi-span bridges in Australia, measuring approximately 1,100 metres in length.
