Flooding - numerous major road closures - W.A. Goldfields to Eucla

All travellers to W.A. from the East, be aware that a heavy, consistent and relatively stationary rain band, has brought major flooding in Eastern W.A. through to the W.A. border.

There are many major road closures in the region - the Leonora-Laverton road is closed due to severe flooding, the Trans-Line has been cut by flooding and will be closed for days, and the Eyre Hwy between Norseman and Eucla is closed due to flooding.

Many of the remote Aboriginal Communities and many Outback tracks are flooded. Some areas have received over 200mm of rain over the last few days, and this comes on top of heavy rains in the area at the end of January 2024.

Please check with local road authorities before moving through this region in the next week to perhaps 10 days.
