Swan Hill Bridge – Murray River Crossing – Swan Hill Update.

Transport for NSW, in collaboration with the Victorian Department of Transport, is planning for a future crossing over the Murray River at Swan Hill.

You are invited to provide feedback about the preferred alignment following changes to the heritage status of the existing Swan Hill Bridge.

Please see the attached community update for more information about this planning.
