Timeline – Bridge Bracket Project

COMPLETED – August, 2023

Westernport Water conducted an inspection of the pipes underneath the Phillip Island Bridge as part of preparations for the San Remo Bridge Bracket Renewal Project. An Under Bridge Inspection Unit (UBIU) was used for the inspection.

COMPLETED – November – December 2023.

• From 26 February 2024 until late – January 2025.
• Suspended scaffold will be used under the bridge so workers can safely access the pipes while minimising impacts to traffic.
• Water and wastewater services will continue as normal while the works are occurring.
• Marine users can expect some changes to clearance and navigation under the bridge while the works are happening. A middle section of the bridge will remain clear of scaffolding at all times to ensure tall marine vessels have full clearance under the bridge.
• Mass limits apply to the bridge please see Heavy Vehicle FAQ’s for more information.
• Cars will be able to cross the bridge as normal while works are occurring.
• On rare occasions, traffic management or pilot vehicles may be required to enable access for specialised heavy vehicles, and while navigational markers for marine users are relocated.
• Pedestrian access across the bridge will remain open at all times, as will the pedestrian access track under the bridge at each abutment/end.
