On Friday, after finding some damage in some of the girders, Nambucca Shire Council placed a 20-tonne load limit on the bridge and reduced it to one lane under traffic light control.
It is anticipated that Lanes Bridge will be reopened after 5pm on Thursday.
Council apologises for any inconvenience, however, a full closure of the bridge is required to replace the damaged girders.
The longer term plan for the bridge involves replacing and widening the two-lane timber bridge with a two-lane concrete bridge.
