  • The West Gate Bridge is a steel, box girder, cable-stayed bridge in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, spanning the Yarra River just north of its mouth into Port Phillip. It carries the West Gate Freeway and is a vital link between the inner city (CBD) and Melbourne's western suburbs, with the industrial suburbs in the west, and with the city of Geelong 80 kilometres (50 mi) to the south-west. It is part of one of the busiest road corridors in Australia. The high span bridge was built to allow large cargo ships to access the docks in the Yarra River. The main river span is 336 metres (1,102 ft) in length, and the height above the water is 58 metres (190 ft). The total length of the bridge is 2,582.6 metres (8,473 ft). It is the fifth-longest in Australia, the longest being Melbourne's Bolte Bridge at 5 kilometres (3.1 mi). The West Gate Bridge is twice as long as the Sydney Harbour Bridge and is one of the highest road decks in Australia, clearing the water at 58 metres (190 ft), with the Sydney Harbour Bridge clearing the water at 49 metres (161 ft). The bridge passes over Westgate Park, a large environmental and recreational reserve created during the bridge's construction, and carries up to 200,000 vehicles per day. (en)
  • West Gate Bridge är en snedkabelbro över floden Yarra i Melbourne i delstaten Victoria i Australien. Den är en av Australiens längsta broar och förbinder Melbournes centrum med industriområdena väster om staden. Den 2 583 meter långa bron med 102 meter höga pyloner började byggas år 1968 men blev på grund av en olycka färdig först tio år senare. Den hade ursprungligen åtta körbanor, fyra åt varje håll, som år 2011 utökades med ytterligare två. Byggkostnaden var 202 miljoner UAD. (sv)
