The Navuevu Bridge on Cuvu back road in Sigatoka will be temporarily closed for maintenance this weekend.

Fiji Roads Authority says that the bridge will be closed from 8am on Saturday to 5pm on Sunday.

This is a planned closure that will allow their contractors to carry out deck pair works.

FRA says during this time, motorists can use the Queens road from both sides.

Motorists are requested to plan their travel accordingly as access is prohibited across the bridge during this period.
