School Creek Bridge reopens
On Thursday, 1 October the new and improved School Creek Bridge was officially opened to residents of Budgong.
The bridge had to be rebuilt after the Currowan fire went through in January, leaving only the concrete piers remaining and destroying access for residents.
The upgrade was completed in mid-September, with Council working quickly to rebuild the infrastructure damaged by the fires with a more fire resilient replacement.
