Abstract

For 110 years, the Murray River at Echuca was crossed by a combined road and rail bridge of great historic significance. When V/Line decided to build a new rail bridge, a series of studies was undertaken to produce an optimum solution to the engineering, environmental and social needs. The result was that the old bridge has been retained for road traffic, a striking new rail bridge has been built, and the historic attributes of the site have been preserved.

"... the rengitj, as a visible mark or imprint on the land, is characterised as a place of origin, the repository of all names, as well as a kind of mapped visual expression of the connection between people and places which is to be carried out in the temporal sequence of the journey."
