Dynon Road Bridge, West Melbourne

Dynon Road Bridge Pylon

Dynon Road leads from the western outskirts of the Melbourne city centre to Footscray crossing the Moonee Ponds Creek via this wonderful concrete Art Deco Bridge.

Decorative metal railings link the pylons completing the structure of the bridge.

  3. Here's a U.S. deco bridge. These bridges used to be very common but now there are very few left.
