Hi Everyone,

Well the GR road is now open, with some heavy traffic restrictions.
The Kalumburu Road is now open as far as Drysdale River only.
Opening grade work to fix only the washouts is commencing from Drysdale to the Mitchell plateau turn off, then also on the Mitchell plateau track.
This is not the full grade but opening work only.

Of course it's not my decision but hopefully the plateau track may well be opened in approx 1 week or so from now.
Due to 2 weeks of late rain up around the Mitchell plateau only, ( we didn't get it) the plateau track has till now, been to wet to put the grader on to it.

The rest of the Kalumburu Road right through to Kalumburu is to be inspected again in the next week or so to see if it can be opened.

Check out the SWEK ( Shire of Wyndham East Kimberley) road report before travel as they make the decision.

cheers, Anne
