Hamilton Street Pedestrian Bridge

The project

A pedestrian bridge connecting the east and west banks of the Wimmera River has been proposed for construction at the end of Hamilton Street. This will join the walking track connecting the Waterlink Estate on the eastern side of the river.

Council wants to ensure the community is informed about the project plan, its aims and where it fits into the wider plans to ensure Horsham is a vibrant, inclusive community to live, work, play and invest. 

Funding

Council has secured all funding needed to allow construction of the planned Hamilton Street pedestrian bridge. 

• Commonwealth Government contribution: $1,225,000
• Victorian Government contribution: $1,225,000

• Land developer contribution: $100,000

Construction

Works will begin immediately on the detailed construction drawings and pre-fabrication of steel works. The community will notice on-site works occurring in the second half of 2022, with the bridge completed by 31 December 2022.
