TCL, in collaboration with Sellicks and PlanIT, undertook concept design, community feedback, DA, construction documentation, tender review and construction review for the project. The design for the bridges reflected an update to those used in nearby Tidbinbilla - a much loved TCL project that is traversed by a series of low slung, mild steel walkways.

The bridge design used a kit of parts approach, relying on off the shelf pieces in considered sizes that would allow for a team of labourers to build the bridge structures in difficult to access sites, without the need for large scale cranes and other equipment.

The use of a mild steel and a lightweight design exemplified an approach which focused on limited site impact. This included the reuse of existing bridge alignments and path infrastructure, and a structural layout that closely hugs the topography to limit the need for balustrades and large structural elements. Careful material considerations ensured that the bridges would nestle into the landscape.

The revegetation surrounding each bridge was undertaken in consultation with the Latham District Park Landcare group. The local group of volunteers provided key feedback on endemic and native plant species selection and placement specific to the Umbagong Distric Park and site conditions.

The result is a design that has a high level of visual connection between the landscape, creek, and the bridges, while allowing greater access and new vantage points for visitors and the local community.
