Old Traffic Bridge closed Friday and Monday nights

Freo Today. 2 May 2025. More like Freo Tonight and Monday Night. Main Roads WA have advised the Old Freo Traffic Bridge will be closed tonight, Friday 2 May and again on Monday 5 May 2025 to enable safe relocation of piling equipment and to facilitate installation of steel barriers. The Bridge will be closed between 7pm and 6am on each occasion. Road users, pedestrians and cyclists are advised to use Stirling Highway to travel between North Fremantle and Fremantle. Well,there’s no other realistic alternative, is there! This is a good warm up for what it’ll be like all next year when the Old Bridge is closed permanently until the new one is opened. Can’t help think it’ll be a form of water torture for 12 months. It’s about time Main Roads started discussing with Freo people just how that is going to work. It’s not going to be easy.
