Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Tassie Truckies Memorial WallPrint Page 
The wall commemorates Tasmanian truckdrivers who have died while at work.
Twin walls carry the names of the deceased. Seats and landscaping allow for contemplation in a tasteful setting and a third wall is visible to traffic on the Midland Highway, to give the memorial added profile.
The memorial wall has 60 plaques to remember truck drivers who have been killed at work, either on or off the road.
