Victoria Pass Bridge Closure Extended

The Great Western Highway’s Victoria Pass closure will stretch into next year as engineers build a new bridge deck above the historic, cracked Mitchells Causeway. Originally slated for a three-month shutdown, the road won’t reopen until April-June next year, with a new structure designed to add a lane and ensure long-term safety. While the government boosts detour infrastructure and offers business grants, locals remain wary of delays due to rugged terrain and weather risks.
