New Bridge To Keep Potato Point Road Open

Potato Point residents will have one less rainy-day worry with an upgrade to improve access to the coastal village.

During heavy rain Potato Point can be cut off due to flooding at Borang Creek, about one kilometre east of the Princes Highway. Eurobodalla Council is building a bridge to replace the existing culvert at the trouble spot.

The two-lane bridge will be two metres above the current road level, allowing water to flow freely and reducing the risk of flooding and damage to the environment. The bridge will be build next to the road and, once complete, the road realigned to connect to it. Portable traffic lights will guide traffic flow during the work.
