I was planning a trip to the Corner Country just after Easter, I know that the area has received in excess of 6 inches of rain over the past couple of days and all roads north of Broken Hill are closed at the moment. Does anyone know how long after a big wet do they normally keep the roads closed? (That is if there is no more rain)

It depends if there is a bit of sun and wind to dry the roads out.
No wind or sun they take longer.
Also depends on how badly the roads are washed out.
Maybe some extensive repairs need to be done before they open the roads

Normally the roads are inspected a couple of times a day to see how they are drying out.

Cheers

I suspect a lot of people will be watching the road reports for easter. All this rain may muck up a few easter camping plans for people.

Hi,

best bet is to contact the Store at Cameron Corner direct. They'll tell if and when you might be able to get through.

Contact the store on; Ph 08 8091 3872, Fax 08 8091 3567

Hope this helps a bit,

Steve

High Country's wet too.

They've had a heap of rain. I'm sure some of the creeks and rivers up there will be running high.

I'd recommend you have a search for info before you head that way too.

WA is pretty dry in the southern half at the moment, everywhere else is wet.

Hoo roo,
Steve
