Works planned for Watt Rd next week are likely to proceed despite its current closure due to floodwaters.
Watt Rd, between McLennan St, Mooroopna and Riverview Dve, Kialla, is currently closed to traffic.
Maintenance activities on Monday, October 16 will also see the section of the road — which includes Watt Rd Bridge — shut between 8.30am and 3pm, even if the road reopens before then.
The Goulburn River at Shepparton was at 9.39m on the afternoon of Wednesday, October 11 — which is below the minor flood level — and is slowly receding.
Vic Emergency states that 8.75m is the level at which Watt Rd begins to flood.
For further information regarding the closure, contact Greater Shepparton City Council on 5832 9700 or email council@shepparton.vic.gov.au
