The tender for the replacement of Gloucester's Billabong Park footbridge has recently been awarded to Jacobs Building.
The final steps of the design and material gathering stage are nearing completion and construction is expected to commence in early 2025 with a finish date of April that year, weather permitting.
The bridge was damaged in the 2021 flood events and there was a lengthy delay with the insurance process.
Further funding for the footbridge replacement has been secured through the Australian and NSW Governments as part of the 2021 Community Local Infrastructure Recovery Program.
