Mandurah Estuary Bridge
Feature lighting for both spans of the Mandurah Estuary Bridge Duplication Project, on behalf of Georgiou and their client Main Roads Western Australia.
The project
As part of this $148.8 million joint initiative between the Australian and Western Australian Governments, the bridge has been transformed into a night-time centrepiece for the Peel Region. The project involved the integration of a programmable LED lighting system across the 380-metre structure, designed to illuminate the Mandurah skyline.
Key features
- Programmable LED architecture: 523 high-performance LED lighting fixtures, allowing dynamic colour-changing sequences and bespoke lighting displays for community events and holidays.
- High-granularity control: a control architecture with over 8,300 individual channels, enabling control over every section of the bridge’s profile.
- Marine-grade durability: we specified and detailed IP-rated hardware, then worked directly with the manufacturer to add corrosion resistance beyond the standard product, for constant coastal salt spray, high winds and impact.
- Public safety: integrated functional lighting along the new Principal Shared Path and universal fishing platform - safe, high-visibility access for pedestrians and cyclists after sunset.
Built to last
Beyond the aesthetic impact, the lighting infrastructure was designed for longevity and energy efficiency. Programmable LEDs significantly reduce power consumption compared to traditional systems, while remote monitoring allows proactive maintenance - the bridge stays a vibrant visual landmark without a technician in attendance.
