For much of the 19th century, crossing the Gourits River was a major obstacle to travel between the interior of the Western and Southern Cape.

Cutting through a deep gorge, the river was dangerous to ford and often impassable after heavy rain, as noted by Lieutenant-Colonel John Collins in the 1820s.

The first permanent bridge over the Gourits was completed in March 1892. Designed by Sir Benjamin Baker and erected under the supervision of William Magee Grier, the steel bridge was an impressive engineering achievement.

It stretched about 214 m across the gorge, some 60m above the river, and was originally built to carry road traffic.

In 1903, the New Cape Central Railway adapted the bridge to carry trains as well as vehicles, though strict speed and weight limits applied.

Engineers soon warned that the structure was operating at its limits, and strengthening it was considered too costly.

After a separate railway bridge was later built in 1931 upstream, while the original Gourits River Bridge continued to serve road traffic.

New N2 Road bridge, designed by Liebenberg & Stander, and built by Murray & Roberts, officially opened in 1978
270 m long, 13.98 m wide height of 61 m.

Michael de Nobrega shared an image of this beautiful old postcard that he received, dated 12 September 1928, all the way from Germany. Titled, 'St. Blaize Lighthouse and the Great War Memorial, Mossel Bay.'

Michael says, "nearly a century later, it's incredible to hold a small piece of history that has travelled so far and survived so long. Makes you wonder about the person who sent it, the journey it took, and the stories it has witnessed along the way."
