DEAR News Of The Area,
It’s just a footbridge at Moonee, not a bypass!
Half a million dollars for design and planning approvals with no foreseen funding at this stage to rebuild the bridge.
And with a suggestion of at least five years since closure before there may be a replacement pedestrian bridge.
That’s ludicrous.
Some pockets will be well lined while the community, let alone tourists, will still be waiting.
It seems like all sensibility has been lost with the loss of the old bridge!
In the meantime, as we impatiently wait, the interim water transport, presumably provided by a caring local, will have to suffice.
It’s more than a little crazy.
Regards,
Jan ALLEN and Craig BELLAMY,
Moonee.
