The Big Clean-up on the Southern Downs Has Started

Council will today now assess damage done to roads in the region thanks to last week’s flash flooding.

Wide spread damage has been done to the Grafton Street bridge in Warwick making it un-useable for the next few days.

Both Warwick and the Southern Downs have road and bridge closures, many of these are due to either water still on the road or due to debris or road damage.
