Humula Bridge Replacement Design & Construct

⁠⁠⁠PROJECT:

This work involves design and construction of a new bridge over Carabost Creek on Eight Mile Rd 500m west of Humula. The tender will also include the removal of the existing bridge and reinstatement of the road realignment of the Eight Mile Rd starting from and including Carabost Rd and Eight Mile Rd Intersection to Downfall Rd and Eight Mile Rd intersection as well as all the disturbed area. Council has assessed the service level required of the bridge and decided that the deck level for the new bridge should be similar or slightly higher than the existing timber deck level, and provide 7.0m clear traffic width.

A new bridge should be approximately 40m long, ideally with 3 spans (assuming vertical abutments) with the central span being as long as economically viable to provide the largest opening for flood flows in the creek.

The bridge should provide 7m clear carriageway width. After the existing bridge is removed rock fill should be placed across the creek at bed level, slightly upstream of the new bridge so that an excavator can enter the creek to remove any future flood debris.

SITE MEETING:

A pre-tender briefing will be held on Tuesday 30th June 2026 commencing at 10:30AM at the site. Registration to attend the briefing can be made via email procurement@wagga.nsw.gov.au.
