Description
DMR 1973 - Cawley Road
Cawley was established around 1880 as a village to house the railway workers while the rail line was being built. It became the centre for a number of small farms, but disappeared around 1889 when the rail line opened, and was absorbed into the Royal National Park.
This bridge crosses the Princes Motorway from the Princes Highway towards the former Cawley. You cannot access it from the Motorway, you will have to park at the Princes Highway at around S 34 09.375 E 150 58.845.

#GA2769 - 08:45; Day seven of the 2018 Oz GeoMuster mission with Sol de lune and after a night in Sydney we were heading closer to home as we cached south through to Wollongong and Shellharbour before heading up Macquarie Pass to the highway home. After a few stops on the way through the suburbs, we had started on the Princes Highway Puzzles series when we stopped off to grab this cache on the way past. Taking advantage of the open gate, we managed to turn this one into a drive by. The cache was quickly located and the log signed before managing to turn the geomobile around and head back out before the gate was closed. TFTC Team MavEtJu

Found an easy way if for this one....not sure if it is always like this, but the gate from the highway (not the motorway) was open, and when you have the chance to use an open gate...you probably shouldn't, but we thought what the heck.
All went well and our names were soon in the log book.
Thanks again TMEJ....

Sadly your cache is not waterproof. I managed to get my signature on the log though. Whilst looking around I felt inspired to leave a moveable I picked up earlier today.

Lucky me, today this was an easy driveby! Walked this whole road before for a very entertaining multi.
