New pedestrian bridges are on the way for Truganina’s Allura Estate, with Wyndham City installing three new crossings over Doherty’s Drain to make it easier and safer for people to get around on foot or by bike.
The prefabricated bridges, which were delivered to site late last month, will link Akkersley Drive to Rockgarden Drive, Malmaison Crescent to Bolivar Esplanade, and Neroli Crescent to Forsyth Road.
Bridge installation is now underway, alongside works on connecting pathways and boardwalks, and is expected to be finished by the end of 2025.
The project replaces the current mix of stepping stones and informal tracks, providing safe, reliable access across the creek and encouraging more walking, jogging and cycling through the reserve.
These new bridges are part of Wyndham City’s $165.1 million capital works program for 2025/26, which is focused on better open spaces, improved roads and projects that strengthen safety and liveability.
