New timber bridge over Crookwell River

The replacement of the old timber bridge over Crookwell River near Binda has been included in the NSW Government’s 'Bridges for the Bush' infrastructure program.

The $4.5 million dollar upgrade is expected to provide better access for freight trucks servicing the region’s agricultural industries.

Upper Lachlan Shire Council's General Manager John Bell insists it's also a great result for locals.
