Ah yes the journey to a better Australia is a long and winding road.
It's probably good that you can't make out most of the players 
on this stage as most of them have moved on.
There's a whole another cast with a different story line 
to take us forward now. 
You are one of the stellar cast members.

Truth is the luxury of the long and winding road of 1986
has now passed and we are looking at the more immediate message 
evident in the top portion of the artwork. i.e. "STOP, LOOK & LEAP"

As a point of interest in the artwork the red light 
on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge was powered to flash on and off.
