North Richmond StationMelbourne
The elevated railway was built in 1901 over Victoria Street, Melbourne. Underneath the bridge on Victoria Street, trams, buses, pedestrians and road traffic travel freely without stopping for trains.
The bridge acts as a gateway to the Victoria Street area with public art tiger motifs. The vegetation on the embankment provides buffer planting through the urban setting.
