Statement of Significance

The Sunshine footbridge is of historical significance as a key component in the Sunshine Harvester Works precinct, providing a physical, symbolic and visual link between the factory and offices on one side, and the managers' and workers' houses and gardens on the other. It thus draws together the concepts of town planning, for which McKay's activities in early Sunshine are notable, and the industrial enterprise of the Sunshine Harvester Works.
