  • 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 Kearney map of 1855 shows land north of City Road (then Sandridge Road) as poorly-drained and avoided on account of its flood-prone nature. To the immediate south was Emerald Hill. 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.

The bridge was constructed by the Country Roads Board in conjunction with the Melbourne City Council, at a cost of £78,000. It was opened on 22 December 1938 by the Hon. Albert Dunstan, Premier of Victoria. The bridge was one of the first to be painted to improve its appearance, with a special brand of paint known as Emulux. The bridge was a continuous re-inforced concrete T-beam five-span bridge.1 The bridge was not completely well-received with reports that: 'By 1939, too, the new Hoddle Bridge fed an intolerable level of traffic into Victoria Street: "Accidents are numerous and many of them causing the death of pedestrians are due to the large number of parked cars ..."'2 Description The Hoddle Bridge connects Punt Road, the boundary of the Cities of Yarra and Melbourne, with the Cities of Stonnington and Melbourne, to the south.
