Hi Everyone - our first post ...
We are having a little "family outing" to
Innamincka leaving
Sydney on the 29th June - I note that now most of the roads up that way are closed ... once the rain stops, how quickly do the roads open up? Do we need to postpone our trip?
thanks

Don't panic, the roads will dry out with a bit of sun and wind.
This is generally a low rainfall area, so chances are all the roads will be open in a couple of days.
Take some warm clothes to Innaminka, because it will probably be cold.
A bottle of port could be handy.

If you have a look at
SA Gov - Northern Roads you will notice that virtually all roads are currently open, albeit some with caution (yellow ones)
The only roads closed at present are
Walkers Crossing and
Innamincka to the Border via Arrabury Turnoff.
They should be open again shortly, unless there is further rain.
Although there may be some "puddles" at times, most roads are navigable again, within a few days of dry conditions prevailing.
