Bellingen Shire Council advises of the immediate emergency closure of the Tallowwood Point Bridge Promised Land Road, Gleniffer due to the movement and failure of a bridge pile.

The Tallowwood Point Bridge is a timber bridge located approximately seven kilometres from the Gleniffer Four way Intersection and during the emergency closure period, vehicular traffic will be required to comply with signage and utilise the alternate arm of the Promised Land Road loop.
