Emergency crews responded to the incident on the Bridgewater Bridge causeway just before midnight on October 26 when a car collided with a pedestrian on the roadway.
A pedestrian suffered fatal injuries as a result of the crash.
The 28-year-old Clarendon Vale man driving the vehicle, a white Toyota Corolla, was not physically injured in the crash.
Initial inquiries indicate it was raining at the time of the crash, and visibility was extremely poor due to weather conditions.
Traffic diversions were put in place with the Bridgewater Bridge closed while investigations were carried out.
Police are still investigating the crash.
The news comes just days after a man died in a two-vehicle crash in Latrobe.
