架构师提供的文本描述。健全的墙壁和道路家具‘为一条32公里的高速公路连接休谟公路和墨尔本环路是与景观建筑师泰勒文化莱特林联合设计的。艺术家和雕塑家罗伯特欧文也创造性地参与了所有元素的概念设计和建模。

Text description provided by the architects. Sound walls and road furniture’ for a new 32km stretch of freeway linking the Hume Highway with the Melbourne Ring Road were designed in association with Landscape Architects Taylor Cullity Lethlean. Artist and sculptor Robert Owen was also creatively involved in the concept design and modelling of all the elements.

该项目的设计是以每小时110公里的高速公路速度发生的。它包括三个系列的雕塑曲线墙、一个人行天桥和一组用于道路桥梁、防撞护栏和固定结构的设计参数。

The project was designed to be experienced at a freeway speed of 110km per hour.  It includes three series of sculptural sound walls, a pedestrian bridge and a set of design parameters for road bridges, crash barriers and retaining structures.

由Tonkin Zulaikha Greer设计的主要系列墙全长超过2公里，是由面形奥氏体钢板制成的，采用简单的凹凸褶皱模型，在凹槽的混凝土底座上漂浮着一波轻轻起伏的钢。

The main series of walls by Tonkin Zulaikha Greer total over 2 kilometres in length, and are made from facetted austenitic steel sheets modelled in simple concave and convex folds to produce a gently undulating wave of steel floating on a recessed dark concrete base.

泰勒·库兰蒂·莱斯林(Taylor Culty Lethlin)的第二套墙是半透明的，保留了光线和居民区的景色。这些墙是用数码图案喷砂、涂上彩色预制混凝土刀片的边缘照明丙烯酸墙。第三套墙是由东京·祖莱卡·格里尔(Tonkin Zulaikha Greer)设计的，以现有的地貌为基础，用引人注目的土石雕刻。使用辉长石和大量种植的土护堤可以达到所需的声音控制。

A second series of walls by Taylor Cullity Lethlean, are translucent and transparent, preserving light and views from residential areas.  These are edge-lit acrylic, sandblasted with a digital pattern and overlaid with coloured precast concrete blades.  The third series, by Tonkin Zulaikha Greer, build on the existing landform with dramatic earth sculpting. The use of gabions and heavily planted earth berms achieve the required sound control.

这项工作的一个主要部分是一座新的人行桥，它被设计成通往遥远城市墨尔本的入口，可以在地平线上看到。这座桥在平面和立面上都是一条复杂的曲线，它是一个钢管桁架，面对着与主隔音墙相同的奥氏体钢，在这一点上，它似乎跨越了道路，表示欢迎或告别。

A major element of the work was a new pedestrian bridge, which was designed as a gateway to the distant city of Melbourne, visible on the horizon. The bridge, a complex curve in plan and elevation, is a tubular steel truss faced with the same austenitic steel as the main sound walls, which at this point appear to leap over the road in a gesture of welcome or farewell.
