Page 1 of 9 DOCKLANDS AND MAJOR PROJECTS Agenda Item 5.2 COMMITTEE REPORT 5 December 2006 CONVENTION CENTRE PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE Division Design & Culture Presenter Rob Moore, Acting Director Design & Culture Purpose 1. To respond to resolution of Council requesting “that a study be undertaken regarding the proposed bridge, its likely usage, positive attributes and negative impacts.” Recommendation from Management 2. That the Docklands and Major Projects Committee note the contents of the report on the proposed Convention Centre Bridge. Key Issues 3. Council has committed $15M (at December 2006 dollars) plus escalation capped at $2.1 million resulting in a $17.1M maximum contribution to the construction of a new Pedestrian Bridge over the Yarra River between Seafarers Rest at North Wharf Park and the new Convention Centre. 4. Attachment 1 to this report includes the requested study and a drawing indicating the bridge in its precinct context. 5. Council have asked State Government to provide pedestrian and cyclist data related to the proposed bridge. Time Frame 6. The Plenary Group (Multiplex/Plenary Consortium) have contracted the State Government to deliver the Bridge and Convention Centre by the end of 2008. Relation to Council Policy 7. The relationship between the Bridge and Council policies is highlighted in City Plan 2010: Connected and Accessible City. The following strategic directions relate to the proposed Convention Centre Bridge:- 7.1. Strategic Direction 1.5, Connection Opportunities (p 27) includes a potential future link on the alignment of the proposed Convention Centre Bridge; Strategic Direction 1.6, Strategic Opportunities (p 31) calls for enhanced “connectivity between key sites along the Yarra River, Docklands and surrounding areas, including the Central City, Port Melbourne and West Melbourne.” Strategic Direction 3.6 (p 49) calls for improved links between key sites and activities in the city and to facilitate pedestrian and bicycle access in and around the city. Page 2 of 9 7.2. Strategic Direction 3.7 (p 50) calls for improved “pedestrian and bicycle connectivity along both banks of the Yarra River, upstream from Docklands and across the river at regular intervals” and specifically identifies a bridge link at the Convention Centre. 7.3. Local Areas – Docklands (p 87) calls for a link across the Yarra River to “improve pedestrian connections between Southbank and Docklands.” Finance 8. There are no financial implications associated with the recommendation contained in the report. Legal 9. The report is for noting only and no direct legal issues arise from the recommendation. Sustainability 10. The proposed bridge will add a key link in the pedestrian and cycle network by connecting Docklands to Southbank at South Wharf. Combined with pedestrian and cycle paths through the Convention Centre site, links will also be created to South Melbourne. This project will promote walking and cycling both to and through the new Convention Centre and the existing Exhibition Centre, and is aligned to Council’s policy to promote sustainable transport modes in line with Council’s ‘Moving People and Freight Transport Strategy 2006-2020’. Comments 11. The project management structure for the delivery of the bridge and public realm works is currently being negotiated and established. The City of Melbourne will be responsible for administering and managing the bridge works and public realm components of the Project Agreement to ensure completion of those components by 1 January 2009 and within the allocated budget. 12. This role will commence from the detailed design development and documentation stage of the bridge works. The appointment of a City of Melbourne project manager, reporting to the Manager Major Project Delivery, is expected to be completed in December 2006.The agreed project management arrangements will be detailed in a report to the first Docklands and Major Projects Committee meeting in 2007, from which date status reports will be submitted to each meeting of that Committee. See Attachment 1 – Convention Centre Bridge Study. Attachment: 1. The City of Melbourne Convention Centre Bridge Study 2 Page 3 of 9 Attachment 1 Agenda Item 5.2 Docklands & Major Projects Committee 5 December 2006 The City of Melbourne Convention Centre Bridge Study Purpose of Study 1. To respond to resolution 1.1.2 passed at Council Meeting No. 18 on Wednesday 26 April 2006 requesting “that a study be undertaken regarding the proposed bridge, its likely usage, positive attributes and negative impacts.” Background 2. The bridge was a key component in the State Government’s brief for the new Convention Centre. The design consultant for the bridge is Grimshaw Architects, who also designed the recently completed Southern Cross Station. 3. The bridge will provide an important pedestrian and cycle link from the Convention Centre and its associated, hotel, retail, commercial and residential development to Docklands in the north and to the north bank of the Yarra River. 4. The primary function of the bridge is for movement of pedestrians and cyclists. However, it can also function as ceremonial entrance for special occasions. On this basis, the bridge has been designed to accommodate vehicle loadings, but State Government has made it clear that the bridge will rarely be used for this purpose, and that there is no intention to use the bridge for any other vehicle or service access. 5. All vehicle and service access to the Convention Centre and associated facilities is from Montague Street and Normanby Road. 6. Council has committed a maximum financial contribution of $15 million for the bridge as part of an $43 million contribution to the Convention Centre project for the bridge, associated public works and marketing. Relation to Council and State Government Policy 7. The relationship between the Bridge and Council policies is highlighted in City Plan 2010: Connected and Accessible City. The following Strategic Directions relate to the proposed Convention Centre Bridge: Strategic Direction 1.5 Connection Opportunities (p 27) includes a potential future link on the alignment of the proposed Convention Centre Bridge; Strategic Direction 1.6 Strategic Opportunities (p 31) calls for enhanced “connectivity between key sites along the Yarra River, Docklands and surrounding areas, including the Central City, Port Melbourne and West Melbourne.” Strategic Direction 3.7 (p 50) calls for improved “pedestrian and bicycle connectivity along both banks of the Yarra River, upstream from Docklands and across the river at regular intervals” and specifically identifies a bridge link at the Convention Centre. 1 Page 4 of 9 Local Areas – Docklands (p 87) calls for a link across the Yarra River to “improve pedestrian connections between Southbank and Docklands.” 8. The new Southbank Plan, jointly prepared by State Government and the City of Melbourne, calls for a bridge to provide the links described in more detail below. 9. Inner Melbourne Action Plan (IMAP) as adopted by Council, places emphasis on the importance of pedestrian and bicycle networks in the area. Design 10. The bridge is a striking contemporary design that will be a noteworthy addition to the Yarra River’s four existing pedestrian bridges:- 10.1 Pedestrian Bridge linking Flinders Street Station pedestrian underpass to Southbank (designed by Cocks Carmichael Architects); 10.2 Addition to Spencer Street Bridge – a partially glazed/covered pedestrian bridge on the west side of Spencer Street (Peter Elliott Architecture + Urban Design). 10.3 Sandridge Bridge – the former rail bridge, recently refurbished and converted to pedestrian and cycle use (refurbishment designed by City of Melbourne); 10.4 Webb Bridge – pedestrian and cycle bridge linking the two Docklands precincts of Yarra’s Edge and Victoria Harbour on the west side of Charles Grimes Bridge (designed by Denton Corker Marshall in association with Robert Owen). 11. The structural solution to the design of the bridge results in an elegant, finely crafted deck spanning the Yarra River, supported by arch-shaped steel structural members. Steel cables support the deck and link up to the steel arches above. 12. The arch structures are asymmetrical with four arches fanning out from the south bank adjacent to the Convention Centre and three arches fanning out from a concrete pier located 10 metres from the north bank. The top of the tallest of the arches is some 15 metres above the deck of the bridge. 13. The concrete deck of the bridge is paved in stone. However the City of Melbourne has specified that this should be bluestone as detailed and used extensively throughout the City. 14. The overall width of the bridge is 9.6 metres. It is divided into two side carriageways dedicated for pedestrians, each carriageway being 2.3 metres clear width. The central carriageway is 3.3 metres clear width and is dedicated for bicycles. This central carriageway can, as required, be used for ceremonial access by a motor vehicle. 15. Clear glass balustrades to approximately 1 metre high on both sides of the bridge will mean that it will present minimal visual intrusion into views along the Yarra. 16. The concrete deck will be clad on the sides and underside in aluminium cladding. 17. Materials and finishes for the bridge have been selected so as to minimise maintenance costs. 18. An attractive lighting design has been proposed. Details for lighting are still being finalised and will require approval by the City of Melbourne. 2 Page 5 of 9 19. The design of the bridge has been approved by Parks Victoria in terms of clearance for river traffic. Usage and Links 20. The City of Melbourne has requested that State Government provide data or research material that identifies likely numbers of pedestrians and cyclists who would use the bridge. 21. As stated in resolution 1.1.3 of Council Meeting No. 18 on Wednesday 26 April 2006, it is recommended to the Minister for Planning that a public transport strategy be undertaken in relation to access for visitors to the Convention Centre and to the associated attractions in the precinct, these being the proposed new hotel, retail, commercial and residential development in addition to the existing Exhibition Centre.

The line is eventually converted to tram operation during December 1987 between the current Southbank Depot and Port Melbourne. The first rail lines in Australia operated in Newcastle Collieries operated by horses in 1829. Then a five-mile line on the Tasman Peninsula opened in 1836 and powered by convicts pushing the rail vehicle. The next line to open was on 18/5/1854 in South Australia (Goolwa) and operated by horses. 1864 Leonard John Flannagan was born in Richmond. After graduating he became an Architect and was responsible for being the Architect building Malvern Depot 1910, Kew Depot 1915 and Hawthorn Depot 1916. He died 2nd November 1945.

    Victorian Heritage Database Place Details - 27/9/2021 Spencer Street Bridge

    Victorian Heritage Database place details - 27/9/2021 Spencer Street Bridge Location: Between Spencer Street & Clarendon Street,, MELBOURNE VIC 3000 - Property No B6799 Heritage Inventory (HI) Number: Listing Authority: HI Extent of Registration: Statement of Significance: The Spencer Street Bridge built by the Victorian Railways Construction Branch in 1929-30 is significant as a major new crossing of the Yarra River reflecting engineering and design standards intended to enhance the Yarra River as an aesthetic and recreational adjunct to the City of Melbourne. The Spencer Street Bridge is significant for aesthetic/architectural, historic, and technical reasons at a State level. Spencer Street Bridge was constructed after a long period of stagnation in road and bridge development in Victoria in a climate of controversy and rivalry between public authorities, local councils and politicians. The Spencer Street Bridge is of historical significance as the first major new crossing (as opposed to replacement of older bridges on existing crossings such as the 1924 Church Street Bridge) to be created over the lower Yarra in Melbourne after a considerable lull in such projects since the Morell Bridge of 1899-1900. Its construction demonstrates the political difficulties of the time and the growing importance of motor vehicle traffic to Melbourne's commerce. The Spencer Street Bridge was the first permanent structure over the Yarra built below "the falls" (a natural rock barrier that formed the upstream limit of practical river navigation) and as such is historically important because it was the first bridge to effectively cut the city off from direct contact with its port.

The Port Melbourne railway crossed the river at The Falls and ran north of City Road. By the time of Commander Cox’s 1866 map, some industrial premises were located on the Yarra River bank and walking tracks connected them with the Sandridge Road and Emerald Hill.
