Hi Folks, Sorry about what may be a dumb question. My wife and I plan to go from Canberra down to Bega via Cooma using the Manoaro Highway during mid to late July. Could someone please tell me if there is any requirement for snow or tyre chains (I think that's what they call them) on that road during that t...

Anyone know anything about the road from Bourke to Wilcannia? Obviously dirt, but driveable (experienced driver) in a Falcon & caravan?

We've just travelled the Pacific Highway from Rockhampton Qld to Taree NSW. theres lots of roadworks, particularly North of Coffs Harbour, and to listen to the truckies talk, (UHF 29 on this highway in NSW) the roadworks will go on for a long time. Its very busy, but apart from the roadworks which don...

We are thinking of travelling on the Great Northern Hwy in WA in about August this year. Does anyone know what the fuel situation is on that road? How far apart service stations/fuel stops are? We will be towing a caravan, so don't want to be caught low on fuel. While I'm on the forum, we also want to travel...

Great article about the Mereenie Loop: It is called Larapinta Drive in "The Australian Touring Atlas". I am about to head down that way and wonder if anyone can tell me about its suitability for a 2WD Toyota HiAce? I've heard it can be done but would rather not risk it if I could get bogged...

The road up/down the Toowoomba Range is closed, due to a truck roll-over. Don't know how long it will take to clear. Cheers, Sheba. -- Edited by Sheba on Wednesday 25th of April 2012 09:16:44 AM

The Kings Highway NSW - the main route between Canberra and Batemans Bay (or that part of the south coast) is closed. With all the wet weather there has been a landslide at Pooh Corner.

For those travelling on the far south coast, they announced this morning that one lane on the Brown Mountain road (between Cooma and Bega) will be open tomorrow in time for Easter traffic. They've worked hard.

Anyone have any current info on the Sturt Highway from East of Wagga Wagga to West of Hay please - are there any sections closed or flooded ?

neilnruth · neilnruth

The Kings Highway will be closed from 1pm - 2pm on Mon 1st April, also Tues 2nd and Wed 3rd. They are doing some blasting. There are several roadworks on the route - but on the weekend they don't work so it took the same time to do the trip today as usual.

In case you haven't heard, Brown Mountain - the way you take from Bega to Cooma to Canberra, is still closed after recent rains and a landslide.

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone can tell me the condition of the roads through Tumut, Adaminaby and on to Cooma please. I'm heading up that way on Monday. Would prefer to cut across than go to Canberra and back down to Cooma. Thanks Tess

Watching ABC news just now. Both Forbes and Parkes are under threat. Forbes being evacuated at the moment. Which means the Newell will be closed. Oops, he also just said Nerrandera being evacuated. Won't be heading north for some time. Also 9,000 have been evacuated from areas of Wagga Wagga.
