The Hubners Bridge (also known as Hubner Bridge) was a road bridge on the Sandy Creek Road over Sandy Creek in the locality of Sandy Creek, northeast of Kilcoy in South East Queensland, Australia.
The bridge was washed away on 9 January 2011 during the catastrophic 2010–2011 floods.[1] A flying-fox was built across Sandy Creek to provide supplies to residents stranded due to bridge damage.[2] It has been rebuilt since then and was re-opened on 6 April 2012 .[3]
