  • ECHUCA-MOAMA BRIDGE CROSSING (NEW SOUTH WALES) Submissions Report April 2016
    ECHUCA-MOAMA BRIDGE CROSSING (NEW SOUTH WALES) Submissions report April 2016 BLANK PAGE Roads and Maritime Services ECHUCA-MOAMA BRIDGE CROSSING (NEW SOUTH WALES) Submissions report April 2016 Prepared by GHD Pty Ltd RMS 16.239 ISBN: 978-1-925507-37-9 BLANK PAGE Executive summary Overview of Echuca-Moama bridge crossing Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) and VicRoads propose to build a second Murray River bridge crossing between Moama in New South Wales (NSW) and Echuca in Victoria (referred to as the ‘Echuca-Moama bridge crossing’). Echuca and Moama function as a single community and are linked by the existing heritage-listed bridge across the Murray River, the only accessible river crossing in the area. The bridge does not meet current road design standards. Traffic congestion occurs on the bridge. The bridge has restrictions on the height, weight and width of vehicles that can use it. These constraints affect freight transport, local business and tourism, with associated impacts on the region’s productivity and economy. A second bridge crossing is required to provide an alternative route across the Murray River. The Echuca-Moama bridge crossing is required to alleviate congestion on the existing bridge, improve security of access for the local community and provide access across the Murray River for higher mass limit and oversized vehicles. It has been developed in consultation with the local community and stakeholders. NSW proposal Roads and Maritime proposes to build the NSW component of the Echuca-Moama bridge crossing (referred to in this submissions report as ‘the NSW proposal’). The NSW proposal extends north- east from of the high water mark on the Victorian bank of the Murray River to about 320 metres north of the Cobb Highway/Perricoota Road intersection in Moama.
