Temporary weight restriction on Weir Road/Reedy Lake Road

1 May 2023

As Chief Executive Officer Strathbogie Shire Council please be advised that under Clause 12 (2) (of Schedule 11) of the Local Government Act 1989, I am placing a temporary restriction (under delegation) to limit the use of Weir Road/Reedy Lake Road Kirwan’s Bridge to vehicles up to a maximum weight of no greater than 5 tonnes.  This restriction will remain in force effective from 8 May 2023 until September 2023 when the scheduled road upgrade works will commence.

This will ensure that heavy vehicles must take alternate routes during the winter months to maintain the integrity of the unsealed road surface thereby providing a viable access route for Kirwans Bridge residents, school buses, emergency vehicles, local farming properties and other associated community use.
