A $35 million bridge extending Collins Street into the Docklands and
creating 300 construction jobs will be built by 2002, the State Government
announced yesterday.

The bridge will extend over the Spencer Street Station railway tracks and
the newly named arterial road, Wurundjeri Way, before descending into the
Batman's Hill precinct. It will have gradients suitable to carry double tram
tracks to extend public transport.
