Spring Creek Bridge closure

The current condition of the Spring Creek bridge cannot safely support any traffic, including pedestrians, and the current long-term closure is necessary for safety reasons.

Pedestrians and cyclists can still walk or ride to Spring Creek Bridge, from the Powder Magazine at the northern end of Gorge Road or from Newtown Falls. Visitors must return the way they came in.

The community will continue to be updated as more is known about the condition of the bridge after more detailed engineering assessments.

Please be mindful that there maybe an increase in traffic along Gorge Drive while the engineering assessments occur.
