Barongarook Creek Reserve Bridge works underway
Colac Otway Shire Council advises the following bridge works are being undertaken:
Location: Barongarook Creek Reserve at the Murray Street public toilets and carpark area opposite the Barongarook Gardens Aged Care Home. Works: Construction of a new pedestrian and cyclist bridge over Barongarook Creek and bridge approach footpaths connecting to the existing Barongarook Creek footpaths. Duration: Work commenced Monday 14 February 2022 with works expected to be completed in April 2022 (subject to favourable weather conditions).
There will be disruption of the Barongarook Creek Shared Path where it ends at the Murray Street carpark as the path will be restricted while works are undertaken. Provision will be made for safe movement of pedestrians that may be affected by the works.
Parking and turning in the Murray Street carpark will also be limited, however the public toilet block and some parking spaces will remain open to the public.
Car park and path users are asked to avoid the work site and seek alternative parking/routes wherever possible.
Thank you for your cooperation while these important works are completed. For further information, please contact Colac Otway Shire Council on 5232 9400.
