New $5 million bridge for Heathcote River at Brougham St/SH76
KiwiRail is replacing a double track bridge across the Heathcote River next to Brougham Street "as it has come to the end of its useful life."
The approximate cost of the new bridge is $5 million. The project started in August 2020 and will run to July 2021.
"KiwiRail is committed to raising the standard of our rail lines, bridges and tunnels across the country. This will enable KiwiRail to offer better and more reliable train services for our customers, and move more of New Zealand’s growing freight task onto rail."
