The State Government has started work on a $1.8 million upgrade of Coppermine Creek Bridge on the Kilkivan-Tansey Road, west of Kilkivan.
Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey said RoadTek would construct a new bridge deck and guard rail to improve safety for families and businesses who use the route.
To minimise disruption, a temporary side track will be built.
The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2020, weather conditions permitting.
Drivers are urged to drive to changed traffic conditions and to observe all signs and speed limits.
