South Burnett Regional Council has advised that due to ongoing deterioration a bridge on Stonelands Road will be closed from Friday (March 1) until further notice.
All traffic will now have to use the existing sidetrack which is being used by heavy vehicles.
Signs will be in place to direct motorists.
Council has programmed work on the bridge’s replacement to start in late May, weather permitting.
Bob Morgan’s Bridge on Stonelands Road was closed to heavy vehicles in 2014.
Money was allocated in both the 2015-16 and 2016-17 Council Budgets for bridge repairs on Stonelands Road.
