Boorloo Bridge: Feature-lighting works return to McCallum Park

WestCycle have been advised that maintenance and repair work on Boorloo Bridge are progressing, with works now scheduled to return to the McCallum Park side of the bridge from Friday 30 October 2026.

The additional closure is required to complete remaining works associated with the bridge’s feature-lighting system.

Subject to completion of works on the Point Fraser side, the McCallum Park side is scheduled to close during the following periods: 

  • 6am Friday 30 October to 6am Saturday 31 October 2026
  • 6am Monday 2 November to 6am Tuesday 3 November 2026

During advertised closure periods, the McCallum Park side of the bridge will be closed to pedestrians, cyclists and other path users. A signed detour will be in place via the Causeway Traffic Bridge and Heirisson Island to reconnect with the Boorloo Bridge path.

Boorloo Bridge remains safe to use, and the bridge will be fully open on weekends and outside advertised closure periods. All works to Boorloo Bridge are expected to be completed by Friday 6 November 2026, weather permitting.

Works are subject to weather, site and operational requirements. Any changes will be published on the Main Roads Travel Map and project page. Main Roads appreciates your patience while these essential works are completed.
