Project description

Three span 26 metre long single lane timber bridge in poor condition that will need to have a 16 tonne load limit applied if the bridge is not replaced or extensive timber girder replacement works carried out. The bridge is also a road safety hazard located at the base of a steep gradient and being single laned resulting in skid marks on site from vehicles having to avoid another approaching vehicle.Currently not suitable for B-Double truck access and this is requiring lengthy detours for these vehicles to access farming and forestry properties on the eastern side of the bridge.

Replacement of the timber super structure with a two lane concrete structure to higher mass limits design standards that will allow B-Double truck access and improve road safety at the site.

Total cost of proposed project is $484,544
