Recent history

Clarence suffered terrible damage and many homes were lost within the city during the infamous 1967 Tasmanian fires. A second disaster occurred in the city in 1975 when the bulk carrier, Lake Illawarra collided with the Tasman Bridge collapsing a section of roadway in the Tasman Bridge Disaster. Ironically, this event, which severed 'The Eastern Shore' from Hobart for nearly three years, was responsible for considerable infrastructure growth on 'The Eastern Shore', leading to it being largely self-sustaining, and being declared a city in its own right. The 1967 Tasmanian fires were an Australian natural disaster which occurred on 7 February 1967, an event which became known as the Black Tuesday bushfires. ... The MV Lake Illawarra was a handyweight bulk carrier of 7274 tons in the service of the shipping company Australian National Lines, which famously and dramatically collided with pylon 19 of Hobarts giant high concrete arch style Tasman Bridge on the evening of 5 January 1975 at 9. ...
