Burdekin Ferry Bridge Plan and Transport Authority Reply

The Minister for Transport proposes a £13,072 steel and concrete bridge over Saltwater Creek on the Rewen Ayr Road to ease delays at Moadway croweday. No tenders were received. Ayr Shire Council may undertake construction. The Department declines ferrying responsibility during floods citing safety risks and debris, leaving river crossings to local arrangements and Ayr Shire Council ferries when flood levels permit.
