PPTEU Victoria and other unions come together to honour the 54th anniversary of the #WestGateBridge collapse
🗓 Date: Tuesday, 15th October
🕦 Time: 11:30 AM
📍 Location: Meet under the bridge on Douglas Parade, #Spotswood

Just before lunch on 15 October 1970, the West Gate Bridge suddenly groaned.
A storm of rust flakes peeled off weathered steel. The bridge fell away beneath their feet. Minutes later, 35 workers were dead.
