Local Road Information
Reconsider non-essential travel
During and immediately after significant floods and storms, please reconsider taking non-essential journeys to affected areas.
Floodwater can damage roads, make causeways impassable and people that have tried to cross flooded roads have been swept away.
Trees, powerlines and other debris can restrict access to affected areas after a severe storm.
Plan your trip
If travel is essential and unavoidable, it is important to plan your route before you travel to avoid roads that are likely to be closed.
