Yea we're a long way from Coffs now but was just wondering if the road we were stopped on had opened yet

I doubt there'd be any closuresout here in the hills but it's still raining pretty heavily

Can anyone find me a report on the Pacific Hwy north of Coffs and if there are any closure on the New England Hwy south of Armidale?

My limited reception is becoming a problem.

New England Hwy is fine but Waterfall Way (which you would have used as per Josh's suggestion) is closed in the middle.

I'm not sure how far north of Coffs you are, but the Pacific Hwy is closed mid-way between Grafton and Coffs. I will post up a full report for ya in a sec mate, hang on...

The New England Highway should be used as an alternative for travel between Sydney and Brisbane.

The highway is closed 50kms south of Grafton and is expected to remain closed to all vehicles until midnight. Motorists at the site are being turned back.

Southbound motorists are advised to divert at Grafton onto the Gwydir Highway and then onto the New England Highway.

There is no access to the New England Highway via the Oxley Highway for northbound motorists. Northbound motorists should therefore access the New England Highway at Maitland.

These detours will add at least an extra 3 hours to some journeys. Motorists are advised to be aware of hazardous conditions and the potential for flash flooding in the northern region of NSW.

Morgan,

Flooding at Corindi Beach Pacific Highway north of Coffs.

New England Highway clear from Armidale until Singleton it would seem.

All info from RTA website.

Throw in the greens, green peace, unhcr, save the forking children and I've well and truly hit my limit for the number of fuckstains wanting me to sign something or give money. Seriously cubts,  :fork: right off.

Cheers Shiv and Shaz. The closure between Coffs and grafton is where we turned around. Due to this closure we couldn't get to waterfall way so headed back to grafton and continued west to glen Innes.

Good, keep heading West because the Pacific Hwy is closed and two other major alternatives are also flooded.

Wow Byron to Sydney/Central Coast via the New England Hwy. Who'd of thought!

Yeh I know, if he hasn't already reached Glen Innes, he'd be heading West. If he's already there, then yes he's going South isn't he. What a massive detour is my point!

Still want that Commodore wagon now Morgs :P
