Construction is now underway to upgrade the bridge at Bunbury Curran Creek on Railway Parade at Glenfield.
The $18 million project will widen the bridge and its approaches, upgrade the shared pathway on the bridge, increase the load capacity to 120 tonnes and enhance the surrounding walking and cycling network.
From Monday 6 July, detours will be in place for motorists and pedestrians, and Railway Parade will be closed between the bridge at Bunbury Curran Creek and Salisbury Avenue.
"The Railway Parade Bridge is a key local connection, and these works will provide a more reliable, and accessible link for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists to and from Glenfield Town Centre," said Mayor of Campbelltown, Cr Darcy Lound.
"This upgrade will replace an ageing structure with a modern bridge that meets the needs of commuters who use it every day. As our city continues to grow, it's important our infrastructure keeps up to ensure everyone who travels over the bridge can do so safely," Cr Lound said.
Member for Macquarie Fields, Anoulack Chanthivong MP, said the bridge upgrade would significantly improve access to the rail network and surrounding business district.
"A major connection to Glenfield Station, the bridge upgrade will meet the needs of our growing community now and into the future by providing greater connectivity for all users."
The project is expected to be completed by mid-2027.
The Railway Parade Bridge Upgrade is proudly funded by the NSW Government through the Western Sydney Infrastructure Grants Program.
