The Jim Stynes Bridge is a pedestrian bridge over the Yarra River at Docklands precinct in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
The new bridge provides a vital link for pedestrians, cyclists and commuters between the Melbourne central business district, and the key precincts of Docklands and Northbank. Designed as a horizontal suspension bridge, it arcs out 30 metres over the river and creates the illusion it is hovering unsupported above it, passing under the Charles Grimes Bridge.[1]
The bridge was named after Jim Stynes, a prominent Ireland-born player of Australian rules football who died in 2012.[2] Two bronze plaques outlining Stynes' achievements are installed at each end of the bridge.[3]
