During late September and early October, the heavy beams for the upgraded Cement Creek Road Bridge were lifted in place by a mobile crane.
On October 11 the concrete deck was poured. The concrete deck will require 28 days to cure before vehicles can use the bridge.
In the meantime, works on the remaining components of the bridge will continue, including pedestrian access.
Once the bridge has been completed Yarra Ranges Council and Parks Victoria will take the opportunity to carry out improvements works to the road leading from the Bridge to the Redwood Forest. These works are expected to take up to three weeks, once completed the bridge and Cement Creek Rd will be open for public access.
Weather permitting the bridge, road and forest are scheduled to be available for public access early December.
