If you have a higher clearance vehicle, prepared to put up with
granite gravel roads,
Tamworth to
Bendemeer,
Bendemeer to Kinstown (watch the curves just out of
Bendemeer and be alert on the dirt), Kingstown to
Bundarra (watch for the left hand turn about 10km out of Kinstown, I often sail past it),
Bundarra to Inverell, 2hours all up if no mucking around
IF you want all bitumen,
Tamworth to
Uralla, turn left to
Bundarra, then onto Inverell, say 10-20 minutes longer
Haven't been on it for 6 months, though I was near there last weekend on dirt roads NE of Barraba and noticed after the heavy rain in early Feb., there were some washed away sections, which may have affected the road between
Bendemeer and Kingstown

Mark from
Ballina here, ex Glen Innes...we always travelled back road ( not the NE Hwy), ..
Manilla, Baraba,
Bingara, Delungra, Inverell.... 1 small range rather than the Moonbis, no drag thru Armidale all good road, hardly any traffic.

Agree with Marksom.
We live in GI and often travel this way to visit friends in Tam.
Less traffic (ie heavy transport) and the
New England hwy. is presently not too flash.
If you are in a hurry the stop starts at the moment will drive you round the twist. Can be a longish wait top of Moombi, they are removing a large
rock section.
At least the road gangs are on it.
