Photograph - Black and white, c. 1950
The intersection of Warrigal Road and Nepean Highway is now a major intersection, serviced by traffic lights. In the 1950s it was a joining of two sealed roads, although covered in gravel, and with wide gravel shoulders. There are no traffic signs and the few houses visible are not set very far back from the road. This image is one of many in the collections that focuses on either roads or the railway. The development of roads and the railway was crucial to the ongoing development of the area.Black and white photograph of the intersection of Warrigal Road and Nepean Highway, Mentone.
