FOOTSCRAY Station bridge has been named after local indigenous leader and activist William Cooper.

Residents Anthony Balla and Christine Newman, who live in Mr Cooper’s former house, nominated the name in the recent competition.

Yorta Yorta descendent Mr Cooper, who lived in Footscray during the mid- to late-1930s, pursued justice for Aborgines and helped organise a National Day of Mourning for Indigenous Australians.

“He played an important part in Australia’s Aboriginal history and it is fitting to pay tribute to his legacy in this way,” Planning Minister Justin Madden said at the christening of the footbridge today.
