56 years ago - when the island bridge was being built. It was quite a spectacle for locals back then, always a good view to sit and watch the work progress slowly. The biggest 'progress' event to happen here in my lifetime. From memory the whole scenario wasn't as 'work place safe' as it should have been.. which made it all the more fascinating to watch them working up there.

Phillip Island Bridge rehabilitation works will be undertaken by Big Build Roads on behalf of Transport Victoria. The government said it was working to finalise time frames for the Phillip Island bridge, and it is expected works will take around three years to deliver.
