***Updated Friday 29th August

The side-track access for Fernside Bridge is structurally complete. Bitumen sealing will be completed on Monday 1st of August (weather permitting), followed by removal of the bollards allowing heavy vehicle access.

Shotcrete application of the side track batters is scheduled for Tuesday 2nd August (weather permitting), and may cause temporary delays to motorists wishing to use the side track while this work is completed.***


The side-track access for Fernside Bridge is on schedule to be open for vehicles by 29th July (pending weather). This will allow vehicles over 3.5tonne (GMV) access to and from Fernside Road, while repairs are scheduled for Fernside Bridge.

Additional pipes for higher creek flow have been installed as an added precaution. To finalise the works, shotcrete, sealing and tidy up will be carried out this week.

We appreciate the ongoing patience of the community while this side-track access for heavy vehicles was installed.
