Historical information

The people in the horse and cart are driving their vehicle over the original Macedon Road bridge which spans the Jacksons Creek in Sunbury. In the 1970s the road was diverted to take out the downhill bend at the approach to the bridge and a newer bridge was built close to the original one, which now takes pedestrian traffic.

Significance

The original Macedon Street bridge is one of five heritage bridges in Sunbury. Two of them are built along Macedon Street and the other three are along the railway line.
