East Side
The Marsupial Bridge was designed to connect the neighborhoods on either side of the river for pedestrians and bicycles. It was added to the Holton Street Viaduct, below the deck, for ease of access by users.
The Viaduct was built in 1926 and there was a great deal of design and engineering effort put into the bridge.
Because the bridge resembles a pouch below the deck of the viaduct, it has become known as The Marsupial Bridge.
