Memorial Plaque
A memorial plaque was erected in honour and memory of the 35 workers who died in the collapse of the West Gate Bridge on 15th October 1970. The plaque was unveiled on 15th October 1978, and paid for by the workers who subsequently completed the West Gate Bridge.
The inscription reads:
