Photograph - Malvern Road and Glenferrie Road intersection, 1960s

Historical information

Photograph of Malvern Road and Glenferrie Road intersection showing the tram track H crossing with dual turnouts on the southwest and southeast corners. The tram tracks are at a lower level than bitumen roadway causing a rough undulating surface for motor vehicles. Extra works lighting is hanging from the overhead on one side of the junction suggesting future night works. This junction would eventually be relaid in mass concrete. A milk bar advertising various ice creams and other small shops are located at the intersection.

Significance

Yields information about deterioration of tramway tracks and need for maintenance or replacement.
