The Syphon Road in the Victoria Valley has been closed by Parks Victoria after recommendations from DSE to close the bridge at the southern end of the road. The bridge was assessed this week by DSE engineers who have deemed it unsafe and have provided advice to Parks Victoria that the bridge should be closed immediately. Funding has been allocated by DSE and the bridge is scheduled to be replaced in the first few months of 2011.
Update 24/09/2010
The Southern end of Syphon Road is closed due to the bridge on the Glenelg River being unsafe for vehicle traffic. A detour can be made via Redhill Road and Sawmill Track (4×4) only, (signs are in place).
