Active work
Traralgon-Maffra Road rehabilitation works, Tinamba
We’re delivering vital maintenance works on approximately 1.4 kilometres of Traralgon-Maffra Road in Tinamba, between Kingscotts Lane and Riversdale Road.
These rehabilitation works will restore the condition of the road surface.
We’ll be on site between 6am and 6pm, from late-October to December 2026, with the possibility of some weekend works.
During works, lane closures are in place, with reduced speed limits to ensure the safety of crews and road users.

McKillops Bridge (McKillops Road), Deddick Valley, repair works
We’re carrying out repair work on McKillops Bridge (McKillops Road) which crosses the Snowy River in Deddick Valley, East Gippsland.
Work is expected to start in early November 2026 and be completed in December 2026.
The bridge will be closed from 7am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, with limited opportunities for vehicles to cross depending on the stage of the works.
The works involve replacing some timber components of the bridge, including the deck timbers.
McKillops Bridge is of heritage significance. The current bridge was built in 1935.
To maintain the bridge’s traditional appearance, carpentry work for the replacement of timber components will match the original design.
We have sourced timber that closely matches the original materials. This approach ensures that while essential repairs are made, the bridge retains its familiar look and character.
We thank the community for their patience during these important works.

During works, lane closures will be in place, with reduced speed limits to keep crews and road users safe.
Please note: These dates and times are subject to change due to weather conditions.

Works will also include installing new safety barriers and undertaking road pavement rehabilitation at the site.
During works, lane closures will be in place, with reduced speed limits to keep crews and road users safe.
