The pedestrian suspension bridge at Mackaytown was erected in 1906 to give access to the "flag station" on the Paeroa-Waihi railway line. In February, 1944, the Ohinemuri County Council was informed that the Public Works Department had no further use for the bridge and the council decided to demolish the structure.
