Seventh Avenue Bridge, Railway bridge in Maylands, Western Australia
Seventh Avenue Bridge is a road bridge in Maylands that crosses the Midland railway line and connects vehicle and pedestrian traffic across the area. The structure includes footpaths, noise walls, guard rails, and electrification screens for safety and protection.
The original bridge was built in 1913 and served the community for nearly a century. It was replaced in 2015 with a new structure to meet modern structural and functional requirements.
Public art installations on the bridge were created through partnerships with local groups and celebrate the region's heritage. Visitors can discover these artworks while crossing or walking along the structure.
The best way to reach this location is from Seventh Avenue, where parking is available nearby. Pedestrians should use the marked footpaths for safe crossing over the structure.
The replacement bridge opened on 6 May 2015, inaugurated by Transport Minister Dean Nalder, and at that time carried about 3,500 vehicles a day. Its design includes a span of more than 80 metres, footpaths, noise walls, guard rails and electrification screens.
