Located approximately 10 kilometres to the west of Canberra, the Molonglo Valley has been identified for future urban development. The proposed Molonglo 2 Pedestrian Link Bridge and Associated Sewer works are being constructed on banks either side of the Molonglo River, approximately 1 kilometre downstream of Coppins Crossing.
