The Captain Cook Bridge is the third crossing of the Brisbane River. It was opened in 1972. The bridge crosses at the South Brisbane Reach of the river, linking Gardens Point to Woolloongabba.

Captain Cook Bridge actually consists of two separate bridges, one for each direction of traffic. The bridge carries four lanes of traffic in either direction and links the M3 Pacific Motorway to the M3 Riverside Expressway.
