Bridge attracts residents ire

Kilcoy residents have taken to social media to express their frustration, as the Kilcoy Creek once more broke its banks, leaving the bridge impassable.

Residents said Somerset Regional Council was warned the bridge was too low, however their concerns were ignored.

One resident said this was the second time the bridge had gone under, leaving residents struggling to cross the creek.

Others posted images on social media, referring to it as the 'flood proof bridge', when it was underwater and impassable.
