Boorhaman East Road Bridge open
We’re pleased to share that the upgraded Boorhaman East Road bridge over Diddah-Diddah Creek has officially reopened to traffic following the completion of barrier works earlier this week.
Motorists are reminded to observe the reduced speed limits still in place while the new road surface settles and contractors work to safely remove the temporary side road and bridge.
Thank you to all road users and local residents for your patience and understanding during the delivery of this important infrastructure upgrade.

Site works have recommenced this week after a pause of several weeks to allow the newly constructed concrete deck to cure.
The temporary steel and timber formwork has now been removed, revealing the completed deck.
Over the coming weeks, attention will shift to rebuilding the road approaches to align smoothly with the new bridge structure.

The welcome rain this week didn’t slow construction progress, with installation and testing of the pile supports now complete, and assembly of the steel structure progressing well.
Works to finish shaping and rock armouring the new wider waterway will be completed next before placement of the main bridge beams.
The temporary side road and associated speed limits remain in place, and we ask that road users take care in the changed conditions.

Works on the Boorhaman East Road Bridge upgrade project began this week, with installation of the temporary side road and bridge well advanced.
Our local contractor, Murray Valley Piling is aiming to complete installation over the weekend and once in place, the temporary structure will carry road traffic to enable the removal of the existing bridge and culverts, before construction of the new longer span bridge commences.
Please be aware that reduced speed limits are in effect around the worksite and on the temporary bridge.
Weather permitting, construction is expected to take approximately six to eight weeks.
