I’ve not seen any actual work being done on it yet. Very frustrating. I saw something yesterday and then realised it was just them putting more barricades up…
How long is this bridge going to take to get fixed as it’s frustrating for us that live at Greenwood Village that have to detour all the way to Dinmore to come all the way back to Redbank.. What use to be a 5 minute drive home from work at Fliders view, is now a 15-20 minute drive due to the bridge closure…
Redbank plains rd overpass is still closed over 3 months later with no access through for cyclists and is extremely annoying
