Latticed pedestrian bridge set to open
Melbourne's latest landmark, the Webb Bridge, will be opened next week. The superstructure comprises a lattice of hoops as an analogy of fishing traps and baskets. The design was by sculptor Robert Owen, architect Denton Corker Marshall and Arup, which provided specialist lighting input and structural engineering. The bridge provides access across the 110m River Yarra in Melbourne's Docklands.
