Wattle Street Bridge: closed from Mon 17 Feb
Please note that from Monday 17 February, the City of Greater Bendigo will fully close the Wattle Street Bridge and partially close the intersection of Wattle Street and Creek Street South. As illustrated in the below image, during the works, parents and carers wishing to drop off or pick up students at any of the Senior School entrance points along Wattle Street will need to access Wattle Street via High Street or Creek Street North. Work is expected to be completed by June 2025, and will focus on repairing the bridge's damaged southern barrier and installing a new, separated pedestrian path.
