Work on bridge set to begin

Works will include installation of concrete anchor blocks on either side of the river, installation of a steel cable bracing system, removal of damaged timber decking and steel support beams, and waterproofing of exposed top-facing timber surfaces to prevent further deterioration

Once works are completed, the existing river closure can be lifted, and the Goulburn River can be re-opened.

Restrictions are currently in place within 50m of the bridge upstream and downstream.
