Wednesday, 5 September, 2018

Upgrade and replacement works will commence at five bridges in the Strathbogie Shire over the coming months, requiring road closures near Longwood, Euroa and Violet Town.

These works kick off over $2 million worth of works to bridges and major culverts for the 2018-19 Capital Works Program and continue Council’s commitment to upgrades and removal of load limits on local bridges.

Last financial year, 15 bridges in the Strathbogie Shire received works, including full reconstruction and strengthening works such as deck overlays and re-decking.

Council thanks the community for their patience and cooperation in advance.
