  • ELIZABETH QUAY WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT – ISLAND VEHICLE ACCESS BRIDGE, PERTH, WA Brian Lord, Arup Pty Ltd, Australia ABSTRACT
    Small Bridges Conference, Melbourne, Victoria, 2015 ELIZABETH QUAY WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT – ISLAND VEHICLE ACCESS BRIDGE, PERTH, WA Brian Lord, Arup Pty Ltd, Australia ABSTRACT Elizabeth Quay is a development by the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (MRA) for the State Government of Western Australia to revitalise the city of Perth and return the city’s focus to the Swan River. The development covers nearly ten hectares of riverfront land with a 2.7 hectare inlet surrounded by a split level promenade with a garden island located within the inlet, providing additional public amenity. The managing contractor for the development is Leighton Broad with ARM Architecture as the lead architect and Arup the lead structural design engineer. This paper outlines some of the key issues and considerations in the both the design and construction of the Vehicle Bridge. The Vehicle Bridge is an approximately 15m single span simply supported bridge over the Elizabeth Quay inlet. The bridge is designed to provide a flowing access to the island, transitioning from the paved promenade to the garden island. The bridge allows for pedestrian movement from the eastern promenade to the man made island in the inlet, access for services to the island, with an allowance for service vehicle loading and includes garden beds. The key challenge was to design a durable bridge with abstract geometry, garden beds and co-ordinated architectural features that could be constructed efficiently, potentially over water and integrated with the waterfront development edge wall. INTRODUCTION Elizabeth Quay is a development being delivered by the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (MRA) on behalf of the State Government of Western Australia, to revitalise the city of Perth and return the city’s focus to the Swan River.

  • From Perth's Lost Swamps to the Beeliar Wetlands
    Coolabah, No. 24&25, 2018, ISSN 1988-5946, Observatori: Centre d’Estudis Australians i Transnacionals / Observatory: Australian and Transnational Studies Centre, Universitat de Barcelona Reimagining the cultural significance of wetlands: From Perth’s lost swamps to the Beeliar Wetlands. Danielle Brady Edith Cowan University [email protected] Jeffrey Murray Australian Army Copyright©2018 Danielle Brady & Jeffrey Murray. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged, in accordance with our Creative Commons Licence. Abstract: The history of Perth, Western Australia, has been characterised by the incremental loss of its wetlands. While disputes about wetlands are often framed solely in terms of the environment, they are places of cultural significance too. The extensive wetlands of central Perth, food gathering and meeting places for Noongar people are now expunged from the landscape. Urban dwellers of Perth are largely unaware that the seasonal lakes and wetlands of the centre of the city were the larders, gardens, hideouts, dumps and playgrounds of previous generations; both Noongar and Settler. The loss of social memory of these lost cultural/natural places entails the framing of wetlands as aberrant and continues to influence Perth’s development and the sense of place of its inhabitants. Reimagining Perth’s Lost Wetlands was a project which attempted to reimagine the pre-colonial landscape using archival material. Reimagining the past allows connections to be made to the last remaining wetlands in the wider metropolitan area. The fight to save the Beeliar Wetlands in southern suburban Perth as a cultural/natural place illustrates the changing value of wetlands and the laying down of social memories of place.
