Afton Street Footbridge Upgrade
Afton Street Footbridge Upgrade
The original design and construction of the Afton Street Footbridge was carried out in the 80s, comprising of a cable-stayed main span of 70m and back span of 25m. The tower and main girders are steel and the existing decking, joists and handrails were timber.
The project, jointly funded by Moonee Valley City Council and Maribyrnong City Council, facilitated the upgrade of the footbrigde to include new steel beams, barriers and handrails, a new FRP deck, lighting and a comprehensive waterblast and coating.
The bridge is much loved by the local community, providing a vital link across the Maribyrnong River for pedestrians, cyclists, commuters and families.
