The bridge is located on Sun Valley Road, 400 metres west of the Cooperabung Drive intersection.
The full closure is necessary to enable full replacement of the timber girders and bridge deck with reinforced concrete pipes.
Port Macquarie-Hastings Council says these works are considered essential due to a number of structural defects identified in the bridge and will improve safety and flood resilience.
Unfortunately there are no detour routes available to the council during this time.
Emergency services access can be arranged under exceptional circumstances during the closure.
The council would like to thank residents and road users for their understanding and patience while these important works take place.
