Narrabri Shire Council’s most recent road update came through on Wednesday, April 7, at 3.30pm.
Motorists are advised to avoid all unsealed roads in the Narrabri Shire due to the ongoing and constantly changing wet weather conditions.
Narrabri Shire Council advised that the local road network has been affected by recent rain as follows:
• SR1 Millie Road – Closed to all traffic, • SR9 Bald Hill Road – Open with caution, • SR112 Ten Mile Lane – Closed to all traffic, • SR123 Trevena Lane – Open with caution, • SR101 Deni Lane – Closed to all traffic, • SR45 Nowley Road – Closed to all traffic, • SR107 Waiwera Lane – Closed to all traffic, • SR102 Boggy Creek Road – Closed to all traffic, • SR3 Mellburra Road – Open to 4WD only with caution, • MR127 Pilliga Road – Open with caution, • SR82 Womera Creek Road – Open with caution, • SR218 Prices Lane – Open with caution, • SR105 Tarlee Road – Closed to all traffic, • SR116 Galathera Lane – Closed to all traffic, • MR133 Killarney Gap Road – Open with caution, • SR144 Teatree Gully Road – Closed to all traffic, • SR4 Spring Plains Road – Closed to all traffic, • SR286 River Road – Closed to all traffic, • SR173 Pikes Lane – Closed to all traffic, • SR33 Forest Way – Closed to all traffic, • SR011 Harparary Road – Closed to all traffic.
Road users are reminded that they may be liable for any damage that they cause to a road that is closed to their vehicle type, travelling on roads covered with water is extremely dangerous and should be avoided, road conditions can change without warning and drivers should travel with caution, unsealed roads damage very easily when they are wet and only essential journeys should be undertaken until these roads dry out, repairs to damaged roads are not usually possible until the roads and gravel stockpiles begin to dry out and council prioritises repairs with higher trafficked roads usually receiving attention first.
