EspañolRIVERTON BRIDGE
'Riverton Bridge' is a small, two lane timber road traffic bridge spanning the Canning River at Riverton, in Perth, Western Australia
Until the 1970s it formed part of the major east-west road system south of the Canning River and was part of the then High Road between Fremantle and Cannington. In 1978, High Road was upgraded and realigned to become Leach Highway and as part of that project, the concrete 4-lane Shelley Bridge was built a few hundred metres downstream. Since then, Riverton Bridge has been used for mainly local traffic.
The suburb of Riverton was in 1937 informally called Riverton Bridge to avoid confusion with the South Australian suburb of Riverton.[1]
