Dora Creek is named for the creek running through its centre, and was originally known as Doree Doree in the local Aboriginal language, which means "Creek running into a lake".
At this location, you will be caching under a mixed bridge that passes over Dora Creek. The reason it is a mixed bridge is that the bridge hosts 2 lanes, one footpath, and 2 railway lines. So the bridge takes quite a lot of people over it per day. The population for Dora Creek got to just under 1,705 people that lived in the town.
