Matt Lambley on Instagram: "Happy 93rd Birthday Sydney Harbour Bridge 🥳 Crazy to think that that on this day in 1932, thousands gathered to celebrate the official opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Those in attendance were invited to walk the bridge deck for the first time, before later that evening, vehicles gained access. Now, it’s a vital transport route for millions every year, and an icon of @sydney! #sydneyharbourbridge #sydney #feelnewsydney #australia #sydneyoperahouse"

An image of a menorah will be projected onto the Sydney Harbour Bridge to honour the 15 people killed in the Bondi terror attack. The City of Sydney initially planned to light up the bridge with an image of a dove with the words "peace". In an open letter on Monday, Jewish creatives criticised the "generic" use of the dove and urged for a "Jewish-specific symbol".
