Workers on stage three of the project will in March begin construction of the main bridge structure.
The process will see work taking place on both sides of the river at the same time.
This ensures the river can remain open to paddle steamers, houseboats and other river traffic during construction, minimising impacts on business, tourism and recreational activity.
In April, the project team expects to have completed works on the large pier heads that support the future road and bridges and to have finished major earthworks between the Campaspe River and the Murray River.
In the months that follow, the final concrete beams that will complete the two flood relief bridges over the Murray River floodplain on each side of the river will also be installed.
The beams, also known as super-tees, weigh around 85 tonnes and are 35 metres long.
Victorian Transport Minister Jacinta Allan said the next few months of the construction process would be something to watch for locals.
“The Echuca-Moama Bridge project is the largest transport infrastructure project in northern Victoria, and we are extremely excited that the local community will begin to see stage three of the project come to life over the next few months,” she said.
The project remains on track for completion in mid-2022.
