Get a close up view of the bridge from the inside!

Imagine yourself walking through the West Gate Bridge and marvel at the engineering feat of this iconic structure.

Try on some of the equipment that construction workers on the bridge must wear, take a look at the bolts used, and get a glimpse of the tunnels inside.

Hi Po-Suan, the West Gate Bridge Exhibit is located on the ground floor in the turret of the main east gallery, if you cannot find it, ask one of the Customer Services Officers to point you in the right direction.

please state LOCATION of exhibitions in headings of blurbs! Friends went to Flinder St Museum looking 4 West Gate Bridge exhibit only to be told was not there. Yr response to Hi PoSuan did NOT answer the question, which is 'where is it?'! Is it Flinders St, Carlton or Spotswood????? People need to know!

Thanks for the feedback, Bruce - as all these questions are posted on the Scienceworks web page (see the banner at the top), we've assumed that the enquirers are aware that the discussions relate to exhibitions at Scienceworks rather than the other Museum Victoria venues. We will take you comment on board when we respond to future online queries. Hope this helps, and thanks again.
