Lewis Bandt Bridge, Highway bridge in Geelong, Australia.
The Lewis Bandt Bridge is a concrete structure in Geelong that crosses the Moorabool River. It connects the Midland Highway with the Hamilton Highway as part of the region's road network.
The bridge was completed in 2008 and named after Lewis Bandt, an Australian automotive engineer who created the first utility vehicle at Ford's Geelong factory in 1934. The project was part of infrastructure improvements for the region during that period.
Victorian Premier John Brumby presided over the bridge inauguration ceremony in December 2008, marking a milestone in regional infrastructure development.
The bridge serves as a major traffic route for vehicles traveling between the two highways. The crossing is well-marked and integrates smoothly into the existing road network.
Two days of heavy rainfall preceded the bridge opening ceremony, yet the event proceeded according to schedule after weather conditions improved.
