Bridges

Bridge Summary 2005/2006 - Published: 24 Mar 2009

Is a document that was produced, basically in support for a submission to the Government for funding.

The summary is an overall outline of what condition many of Councils aging bridge network is in.  Council is in a rather unique area with having quite a large percentage of its area being flood prone.  Also of interest is the age of a large number of the bridge structures - well over 46 years for some and even some up to 94 years.  Maintenance and repairs due to the ever increasing traffic volumes and weights are continually biting into Councils funds.

Bridge Works within the Shire - Published: 08 Jan 2009

Works on Bridges is an ongoing activity for Council.

Council has a priority list, as determined by bridge condition and funding, for replacement of timber bridges. Council has tried to replace at least a timber bridge per financial year, although largely determined by funding received.

The priority list originates from the annual inspections undertaken by Council staff to determine the maintenance required and the condition of bridges, both timber & concrete throughout the whole of the Shire, being some 75 bridges.
