I was just wondering if anybody here knows when the elevated road
carrying Bondi Road was constructed. Was it built after the sydney
tramway system closed?

The trams turned south from Bondi Rd at Denman St, then cut across a
corner on reserved track to run East down Fletcher St, the turned
North into Roland Ave, then along a reserved right of way under Bondi
Rd (between Dudley and Sandridge Sts) rejoining the road at Campbell
Parade at Francis St.

A bridge carrying Bondi Rd over the tram line route has existed since
the steam tram era, being constructed circa 1893, though I'm not sure
its the same bridge as is in use today.
