Montague Street Bridge, Tram bridge in South Melbourne, Australia
The Montague Street Bridge spans over a major road with a height clearance of 3 meters, connecting different sections of Melbourne's tram network.
Johns & Waygood constructed this steel bridge in 1914 as part of the Port Melbourne railway line infrastructure to serve industrial workers.
The bridge's continuous vehicle collisions have created a local tradition of tracking and documenting incidents through dedicated social media channels.
The Victorian Government installed detection systems and 26 warning signs near the bridge to prevent vehicles from colliding with the structure.
The bridge's low clearance has resulted in financial impacts of approximately 100,000 Australian dollars per collision due to traffic delays and repairs.
