Another picture postcard morning to fly. The Mount Crosby Weir is a heritage-listed weir on the Brisbane River at Mount Crosby and Chuwar, both in City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The project was instigated by John Petrie at the end of the 19th century. The town of Brisbane was expanding and seeking more reliable sources of drinking water than Enoggera Dam and Gold Creek Dam could provide. In conjunction with the Mount Crosby Pumping Station, it was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on 25 October 2019. The location was selected because it was just above the upstream tidal flow of seawater at Colleges Crossing. The concrete structure was completed in April 1892. The dam wall rises 4.57 metres (15.0 ft) and is 81.4 metres (267 ft) in length. The weir has a capacity of 3,430 megalitres (750×10 imp gal; 910×10 US gal), making it one of the largest weirs in the region. Above the weir is a one-lane road which is open to the public. The nearby Mount Crosby Pumping Station is used to transport drinking water that is sourced from the weir, as well as from Lake Manchester Dam built shortly after the Mount Crosby Weir.
