We are OPEN. Bourke Shire have just opened Bourke and Cobar to Louth and on to us (which is sealed), though there’s still a chance of some rain tomorrow afternoon so we will need to keep an eye on the weather. Central Darling Shire have also opened their roads with caution down both sides of the river, but there’s the section from us towards Tilpa (in the Bourke Shire) still closed today. Honestly, I can hear the feed and the wildflowers growing!
