A bridge commemorates Senior Constable Tim Lewczuk who was killed while on duty in May 1997.  

About 8.20pm, Senior Constable Lewczuk and Senior Constable Kylie Towk were patrolling the M80 Ring Road when they intercepted a car near the Western Highway exit.  The officers parked on the bridge behind the car.  While Senior Constable Lewczuk was questioning the driver, a third car crashed into the police car and threw him over the bridge railing and onto the road below. He died at the scene.
