WITH initial bridge barrier repairs done, stage two works to repair the Oak Street bridge over Whiteheads Creek in Seymour will start soon.
The structural damage was identified during routine inspections.
Stage two focuses on structural rehabilitation of the bridge deck, resurfacing with new asphalt to reinstate the bridge’s functionality, and reopen it to two-way traffic and improve its long-term durability.
During the project:
The Oak Street bridge will be temporarily closed to all vehicles and pedestrians
Oak Street will also be temporarily closed between the Wimble Street roundabout and the Tarcombe Road/High Street railway level crossing, but will be accessible to local traffic
The Oak Street and Mentor Street intersection will be temporarily closed, but will be accessible to local traffic
The Oak Street and Abdallah Road intersection will be temporarily closed to all traffic
Signed detours for heavy and high clearance vehicles will be in place via Wimble Street, Delatite Road, Tarcombe Road and High Street.
