The documentation for this place is based on the heritage assessment completed by students of the Research Institute for Cultural Heritage, Curtin University, supervised by Historians Jacqui Sherriff and Dr Bobbie Oliver, in October 2003, with amendments and/or additions by HCWA staff and the Register Committee. PRINCIPAL AUSTRALIAN HISTORIC THEME(S) • 3.8.5 Moving goods and people on land • 3.8.7 Building and maintaining roads 4.2 Supplying urban services HERITAGE COUNCIL OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA THEME(S) • 107 Settlements • 203 Road transport 11. 1 AESTHETIC VALUE* Guildford Road Bridge displays rustic aesthetic characteristics in its use of timber on the slabs and handrails. (Criterion 1.1) The bridge is an important landmark when viewed from the river and terminates the vista up river when viewed from Point Reserve and Kings Park Meadow. (Criterion 1.3) Guildford Road Bridge is an important western entrance statement to the heritage precinct of Guildford. The aged bush pole timbers used in construction harmonise with the remnant vegetation of the Swan River precinct and Federation style architecture of nearby Swan River Lodge, Earls Ferry and Penn-Rose.

Thank you for your patience and understanding since we started works on the Tonkin Gap Project. We are taking a break for Christmas from 18 December 2020 until 4 January 2021. We wish you all a Merry Christmas and happy New Year. During our Christmas break our Customer Information Centre will still be available for enquiries 24/7. If your request is urgent you will be passed onto the project Duty Manager. Otherwise, the team will respond upon our return. 1. Vegetation clearing The next stage of vegetation clearing will start early January 2021 (locations shown on map 1). When and where? • From 4 January until 31 January 2021 o South-east side of Redcliffe Bridge o Tonkin Highway at Guildford Road and Railway Parade to start construction of the two new bridges o Tonkin Highway near Dunstone Road and behind Wyatt Road and River Road Map 1 2. Guildford Road and Railway Parade bridge construction What work will we be doing? To prepare for the construction of the new bridges over Guildford Road and Railway Parade we will be starting preliminary works including further clearing, earthworks, removal of barriers and existing fencing. Night works To allow for these works to happen we will initially need to work at night to avoid peak traffic. This will involve shifting the traffic lanes sideways on Guildford Road (see locations on map 2). Once the site has been established trucks will be entering and exiting the work sites in both directions during the day.
