This plaque is on the southern end of the bridge, western side, on a white painted concrete balustrade of the bridge.
The "deck" bridge is cast concrete with three 'simple' spans, supported on two concrete pylons set into the Yarra River. Five 'orthotropic' reinforced concrete beams support the deck sections. (As evidenced by photos courtesy of Paul G Dodd Photography)
There is foot path on the eastern side (also for cyclists), and the lights are of a 'Victorian' era style. In all - STYLISH!
