Bridge plan eyed to aid Cairns farmers and sugar trade

Letter outlines a project to lower a bridge near Johnstone to enable cane transport to South Johnstone Central Mill. It discusses using a low level bridge as a temporary traffic link, potential cost sharing with the Shire Council, and converting the structure later for eventual main steel works.
