Has anyone done this road lately and have a condition report?

I need to get to Mitchell, Injune and Taroom in 1 day for work so am looking at the shortest route possible (off road if needed).

Cheers Kev

Thats a hard track at the start at the Injune end and runs into a nice drive of bitumen at the the Taroom end. The Dawson R crossing would be passable at this time . the Roma to taroom rd may be a faster track
cheers Kev too!

Kev,

Hard as in serious off road or hard as in slow going?
Have been thinking about the Roma-Taroom rd as it is all bitumen now :)

There is a shortcut - a good dirt road - from the Injune-Roma road to the Roma-Taroom road, past one of the stations (Springvale??). Do you know that?

Cheers, John

Hard as slow going because of natural bedrock which is the road and not gravel, probably nothing to worry about if ya got good suspension.It is not good in a cab with steer over over front axle eg Isuzu nps unless you want to ride a bronc
