near Nerriga, constructed in 1936. The timber bridge and floodway has been replaced by a longer higher concrete bridge crossing slightly downstream, around mid-2015 (date needs checking). . The new crossing is designed to permit higher speed travel and eliminates some sharp bends on the western side of the river and only to be overtopped by much deeper 1:20-year flood events. Nowra Bridge carries the Princes Highway between Bomaderry and Nowra. Comerong Island Ferry carries vehicles and pedestrians to Comerong Island near the river mouth. Historically, there was once a ford crossing at the former village of Larbert.
