    Stage 1 of the Bullock Island bridge replacement has reached a major milestone, with the concrete deck being poured today. The concrete being used is a special marine grade mix that will limit moist salt air penetrating into the steel reinforcement, as was the case with the previous bridge.

    The next stage will see the installation of safety barrier and road approaches.

    The Bullock Island bridge replacement projects completion will most likely be delayed due to unforeseen problems encountered during pile driving. Large amounts of buried rock and debris from the previous bridges have caused the 10 metre long concrete piles to skew sideways during the driving process. Council Officers are working with the contractors and design engineers to identify ways to combat these problems and hopefully get the project progressing at full speed. Unfortunately, it is highly unlikely that the works will be completed by Easter 2022.
