Road closures across Rockhampton, Livingstone and Central Highlands
Some roads across Central Queensland remain impacted or closed following significant rainfall. SEE THE FULL LIST
Rockhampton
Don't miss out on the headlines from Rockhampton. Followed categories will be added to My News.
Following record-breaking amounts of rainfall across Central Queensland, motorists have been warned to stay vigilant and drive to the conditions.
The heavy rain has seen creeks swell and large amounts of water forcing the closure of a number of roads across the region.
The wet weather even forced the closure of an important Central Highlands’ road for three hours after a Followmont prime mover slid on bitumen and jackknifed, blocking vehicles coming both ways.
As usual, emergency services urge drivers to remember if it’s flooded, forget it.
See the full list of roads impacted due to flooding, according to information provided as of 10.30am on August 15.
Feel free to let us know in the comments if any roads have been missed.
