The Bolte Bridge is a twin cantilever road bridge across the Yarra River and Victoria Harbour, located in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The bridge carries the Melbourne CityLink (Western Link) via eight lanes of traffic – four lanes northbound and four lanes southbound. While officially only 490 metres (1,610 ft) long, the actual structure appears much longer as it forms part of a five-kilometre (3.1 mi) elevated roadway between Flemington Road and the West Gate Freeway. In the south, approaches to the bridge start in the Port Melbourne precinct and cross the river to terminate north of the Docklands precinct, to the west of the Melbourne city centre. The bridge and adjoining roadway forms part of the CityLink system of toll roads that connects the Tullamarine Freeway from the northern suburbs with the West Gate Freeway and the Domain and Burnley tunnels to the Monash Freeway and the south eastern suburbs. Completed in 1999, the bridge was named in honour of Sir Henry Bolte, Victoria's longest-serving Premier.
