The Liverpool Road bridge crossing at Strathfield South, formerly known as Moore’s Bridge, was built in 1814 when Liverpool Road was constructed. Governor Macquarie’s plans for townships at Liverpool, Richmond, Windsor, Pitt Town, Castlereagh, and Wilberforce led to the building of new roads, including Liverpool Road (later known as Hume Highway). It was constructed by road contractor William Roberts and completed in 1814 to facilitate transport to these settlements. The Cooks River and the Cooks River shared pathway pass under the bridge.
