Mount Augustus....urgent info please


I realize Eastern Staters can't help, but any West Aussies who have travelled recently.

Seeking info on the Ashburton Downs - Meekatharra Rd condition.

Is suitable for off-road caravan, 4wd or 2wd.

Cheers Bob

You could ring Shire of Meekatharra (During Office Hrs) 9980 0600
or Ashburton Shire 9188 4444
or Main Roads Pilbarra 9172 8877

Hope this helps

Not for some time, but the roads out there are typically pretty good to drive on. I would not anticipate that they would be any issue to you in a 2WD.
Cheers,
Peter

As with P & M, it is a couple of years since we were in that area but I would say those roads are generally well maintained. Ring the local councils/police for current info
cheers and enjoy
Ian

As long as you know that road reports are only valid until the next rain or until the corrugations return, whichever comes first.
