The Anzac Bridge crosses Johnstons Bay in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, and links Pyrmont with Glebe Island and Rozelle. A Roads & Traffic Authority team led by chief bridge engineer Ray Wedgwood designed it. Transport for NSW owns it. It opened on December 3, 1995, and was renamed Anzac Bridge in 1998. The article gives no construction start.

It is a cable-stayed bridge with eight lanes. The total length is 2,641 feet (805 meters), and the main span is 1,132 feet (345 meters). Reinforced concrete pylons rise 394 feet (120 meters), and the structure combines concrete and steel.

A grade-separated shared footpath and cycleway runs along the northern side. The bridge has two planes of stay cables, and stabilizing cables were added later.
