- Abstract
The Church street bridge over the Yarra has carried the traffic between Richmond and Prahran for 60 years, but, though the structure itself is not worn out, the girders are not strong enough for modern requirements, and it is proposed, therefore, to build a new bridge on this site. Mr. F. K. Esling, without making any positive pronouncement on the subject, suggests that an alternative of widening and strengthening the existing structure might be worth considering.
