18.01.2022 Hello Taree : We all really hope everyone is doing OK and managing through the flood crisis: All of the emergency services have been extremely busy over the last few days: .. Lots of people asking us about roads and closures, unfortunately we don't get any extra information other than what is on Live Traffic https://www.livetraffic.com/incident-details/86643 or https://www.midcoast.nsw.gov.au//Emergency-Road-Closure-In We have been advised that the Martin Bridge will remain... closed for the foreseeable future until it can be structurally assessed due to all of the potential damage it may have suffered, no vehicle , including our emergency vehicles are currently allowed onto it and no pedestrian traffic either. The latest information from Live Traffic was that the Hwy was open from Cundletown heading South and heading North from Glenthorne (Old Bar rd/ Service Centre roundabout) to Cundletown for local traffic only. The highway going North from Cundletown remains closed, we have been told that Heavy vehicles may be being escorted through, going South from Harrington turn off. Please stay safe, don't drive through flood waters ... if you have an emergency ring 000, if you need assistance from the SES their number is 132500 See more
