The Kelburn Viaduct (41°16′59″S 174°46′12″E / 41.283°S 174.77°E / -41.283; 174.77) is a concrete road bridge with two-lanes located in Wellington, New Zealand. It was completed in 1931 by Wellington City Council's engineering department, led by George A Hart.[1]

It is designed in the form of piers, lamp-posts, and balustrading, closely related to its designers.[2]

The viaduct had three girders on top of two concrete piers, and the design of the balustrades were changed as a result of multiple suicides.[3]
