Overview

Nestled on the Murray River, Murray Bridge blends riverfront recreation with a vibrant town centre. Families and retirees enjoy around 65 parks and reserves, including Sturt Reserve’s playground and the iconic “Bunyip” machine, while the Linear Park provides a paved walk‑and‑bike route linking cafés, the Murray Bridge Town Hall, Cameo Cinema and the Murray Bridge Regional Gallery. Shopping is centred on Bridge Street, where the Murray Bridge Green and Marketplace malls host Woolworths, Coles, Aldi, Big W and a range of specialty stores, and the public library overlooks the river. Annual events such as the Fringe Festival, Splash Festival and local farmers’ markets give the city a lively community feel.

The town is well‑served by transport: the Princes Highway and South Eastern Freeway connect directly to Adelaide, the historic Murray Bridge road‑rail bridge and Swanport Bridge cross the river, and Murray Bridge railway station links to the Melbourne–Adelaide line via The Overland. Bus operators provide local and intercity services, and a small airport sits nine kilometres north. Housing ranges from established neighbourhoods, Northern Heights, Riverglades and Avoca Dell, to the newer Newbridge estate, offering a mix of detached homes, townhouses and newer developments across the city’s diverse suburbs.
