Would anyone know if the road between
Meekatharra and
Wiluna is okay to be crossed in a 2wd?
Am heading to Kalgoorlie once we leave
Newman and this is the most convenient looking access across to the Goldfields Hwy. Any suggestion would be appreciated =)

under normal conditions I believe so but currently there's a lot of roads that have been damaged or are closed from heavy rains.
Check with Main Roads on that one.

If you are going from
Newman to Kalgoolie you can shortcut thru Canyu road to
Wiluna from south of Kumarina Motel/roadhouse.Saves about 180 Km from memory as you only do 1 side of the triangle.
some old maps I had showed it as a private road but in July 02 when we were going
Wiluna to
Newman learnt that council had taken over maintenance of road. it was excellent and definitely 2wd standard. You could always
check condition with
Wiluna police station.

Hi Howard
I can see Canyu road marked on my map but it isn't marked private. I will call
Wiluna as soon as I find the number and ask the Question. Thankyou =)
