January 2024 Flood Work Repairs commencing December in Greymare Area

We aim to update this data on a monthly basis.  Last updated on 18 November 2024.

The condition of our gravel roads can change quickly, particularly after heavy rainfall.  As you would understand, we need to wait for the unsealed road to be dry enough for our heavy machinery to work on.

This work is also weather dependent so the program may be adjusted to accommodate the ever-changing weather conditions.
