The River Suir Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge over the River Suir in Ireland. It was built as part of the N25 Waterford Bypass, and opened to traffic on 19 October 2009, some ten months ahead of schedule. The Viking settlement at Woodstown was discovered during the project and the route of the southern approach roads was altered to preserve the site. The 230 metre main span had the longest single bridge span in the Republic of Ireland, until the opening of the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Bridge, taking that record from the Boyne River Bridge on the Dublin to Belfast M1 motorway. By comparison, the main span of the Foyle Bridge in Northern Ireland is four metres longer.

River Blackwater is a tributary of the River Suir in County Kilkenny, Ireland. It is formed by the confluence of the Derrylacky River and the Poulanassy or Assy River just to the south of Mullinavat before it flows southwards through the village of Kilmacow before joining the Suir estuary below the townland of Dunkitt.A rubble stone bridge crosses the river near Kilmacow. Built about 1775 it is believed to incorporate some of a late medieval bridge of C1600. It comprises eight pointed segmental arches with squared voussoirs and rubble stone soffits. The unrefined rustic quality means it integrates well in the rural landscape.
