I am currently in discussion with the relevent authorities about this one.
Trying to
check status as gazetted road, and if legitimate use by public is allowed.
The info I have so far is that there is a gazetted road through there ie a reserve for a road is gazetted, but the road isn't on the reserve, so the property owner has the right to refuse access.
He is not at all welcoming from what I hear. Until it is resolved, I suggest you don't go through.

Is there something going on at
Maytown that I don't know about??
You sure you are not referring to the Maytown/Palmerville Road??
I would like to contact Mr Coonan too, but need you to clarify which road we are talking about.
Cheers,
Gordon

Gordon,
Yes I am talking about the road from Palmerville to
Maytown along the Palmer River.
I was advised by a
Mareeba shire council official that the reserve is there but the road doesn't follow the reserve. I have been seeking clarification from Mr Coonan since prior to Xmas, but dont have a reply yet.
