Change to Batemans Bay Bridge lift span operations – limited day lifts from Friday 26 January to Monday 29 January
Over the long weekend there will be no unscheduled bridge lifts carried out during the day from 6am to 6pm to allow traffic to flow across the bridge.
To allow holiday traffic to travel along the Princes Highway between Friday 26 January and Monday 29
January, bridge lift access will only be available:
• During scheduled lifts at 11:45am and 2:20pm each day
• Before 6am and after 6pm (on request – 24 hours in advance)
Batemans Bay Bridge lift span will not be operating on request in the daytime between 6am and 6pm during this period.
Boat operators can request daytime bridge lifts from Tuesday 30 January.
Batemans Bay Boaters Association ask: "Is this the thin edge of the wedge to limiting bridge lifts in the future?"
