Southbank and Fishermans Bend Summary Southbank, South Wharf and the northern half of Fishermans Bend have shared, but distinct, histories. They are defined by the curve of the Yarra River, the West Gate Freeway, the former South Melbourne industrial area and the St Kilda Road civic spine. The areas have historically been seen as the other site, or ‘opposite’ bank of the river. St Kilda Road, Sandridge Road, the “Short Road” to the ferry and the Coode Canal provided the historical routes through the area. These determined that Southbank and Fishermans Bend would initially be areas passed through by travellers as much as places to dwell and work in. Continuous change marks the history of this area. The landscape was created by a tidal estuary, following rising sea levels, flooding of Port Phillip Bay and the formation of wetlands and sand ridges. It was then modified by Aboriginal fire management, and transformed into an industrial heartland by colonial settlers. It is soon to become a new chapter in Melbourne’s growth and evolution. Much of the Fishermans Bend district lies on the soft, grey Coode Island Silt deposited by the Yarra and Maribyrnong Rivers. This is overlaid with sand ridges from old beach dunes, separated by intervening swamps. The wooded Batman’s Hill and Emerald Hill formed the first high ground upstream. The Southbank and Fishermans Bend area was a rich environment for diverse plant life and animals. This diversity supported Aboriginal people for thousands of years. Aboriginal people from the Bunurong and Woiwurung language groups shared territory around Port Phillip Bay and across the site of the future Melbourne. Particular clans claimed the land between the mouth of the Yarra River and Melbourne. Billibillary (1799-1846) was Ngurungaeta (or leader) of a group known as ‘Billibillary’s mob’. Billibillary’s mob’ belonged to the Wurundjeri willam clan (meaning ‘white gum dwellers’) of the Woiwurung language group. Billibillary was one of the signatories to Batman’s treaty and custodian of the Mount William stone axe quarry. Derrimut (1808/14-1864) was the Arweet (also leader) of the Yalukit willam clan (meaning ‘river dwellers’) of the Bunurong. Despite having his wife kidnapped by sealers, Derrimut stayed at the Port Phillip settlement and protected Fawkner’s hut from rumoured attack in 1835. The various Aboriginal clans were made up of several extended families who took advantage of the seasonal abundance of the beach, swamps and river at Fishermans Bend. They managed the landscape with

  • The West Gate Bridge and Pat Preston

    The West Gate Bridge and Pat Preston

    The West Gate Bridge and Pat Preston The West Gate Bridge is one of Melbourne’s most instantly recognised landmarks. Used by more than 140,000 vehicles per day and high enough for shipping to enter the Port of Melbourne, it spans the Yarra River, close to where its mouth empties into Port Phillip Bay. The West Gate Bridge is over 2.5 kilometres in length, with a main river span of 336 metres. It has four traffic lanes plus a breakdown lane in each direction. It has a navigational clearance to low water of 53.7 metres and its two towers stand 102 metres high. Built at a cost of $202 million, construction work commenced on 22 April 1968 and was eventually completed on 15 November 1978. But a terrible event occurred during its construction; one that has permanently linked the name West Gate Bridge to Australia’s single worst ever workplace catastrophe. At 11.50 am on 15 October 1970, the bridge’s 112 metre span 10-11 collapsed during construction, killing 35 workers, injuring many more and changing countless lives forever. One of the survivors was Pat Preston, who was a couple of metres from the hoist cage (shown in the right foreground of the photo below) when the collapse occurred. The West Gate Bridge and Pat Preston Page 1 of 8 15 October 2003 Pat is well known throughout Victoria’s construction industry as the Manager of the CFMEU’s OHS & Environmental Unit, and he is widely respected for his passion, untiring work and achievements in the cause of construction safety.
  • West Gate Bridge Strengthening Project 1. Introduction

    West Gate Bridge Strengthening Project 1. Introduction

    West Gate Bridge Strengthening Project 1. Introduction From the time of its opening in 1978 the West Gate Bridge has been a critical element in the road network of Melbourne. It provides the only major crossing of the lower section of the Yarra River that connects the Melbourne CBD, the Port of Melbourne and the eastern suburbs with the rapidly developing western suburbs, the regional city of Geelong and the popular tourist destinations along the western coast. In 2006 the State Government of Victoria announced a major project to carry out essential strengthening of the bridge to ensure the long term sustainability of the structure and ensure that it continued to safely cater for the current and future demands of both commuter and freight traffic in compliance with modern day bridge loading and design standards. The strengthening project was to be planned to be carried out over a 10 year period consistent with the approach adopted for the strengthening of similar bridges elsewhere around the world. At the time the West Gate Bridge carried approximately 160,000 vehicles per day, with nearly 15% of these being commercial vehicles. This volume compares with the 40,000 vehicles per day that used the bridge when it was first opened to traffic in 1978. Furthermore peak period volumes for both eastbound and westbound traffic had been growing at a steady 3-5% over recent years resulting in significant congestion on the bridge and its approaches. Within Melbourne’s road network the M1 corridor forms the main arterial spine connecting residential and industrial areas east and west of the city with the central business district and the Port of Melbourne.

    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.
