Mullumbimby and hinterland residents and visitors are reminded that Federation Bridge will be closed again tonight from 6pm to 4am for repairs.
The closure includes the pedestrian footpath across the bridge and is in place ‘to repair damage to the bridge surface and to ensure longevity of this historic bridge,’ says Transport for NSW.
‘Transport for NSW encourages motorists and pedestrians to plan their journeys and avoid the area during bridge closures, deferring trips if possible.’

A spokesperson for TC Lack Group who are doing the traffic control on the bridge said they would like to ‘thank everybody for helping so much with the detour through Leftbank Road, Tallowood estate and Coral Avenue’ as those motorists who knew the route were helping those who didn’t by leading the way through the detour.
