Flash flooding can occur in Bland Shire.
If you come across a flooded road, simply stop and turn back. Never drive, ride or walk-through floodwater. Motorists are advised to drive to the conditions.
As soon as road closure information becomes available Council will seek to post this on its Facebook page and website. However, Council can only provide accurate and up to date
information on the status of local roads under its control.
