“The replacement of the Rainbow Pedestrian Bridge has been a long time coming. The previous version of the bridge was installed around 1946. The new bridge pays respect to the old bridge by maintaining the rainbow shape, while providing a safer and more accessible pedestrian bridge for the community,” said Deputy Mayor Charlie McDonald.
