Roads into Fitzroy Crossing following the Flood

There has been a lot of discussion about using the old Fitzroy River crossing as an access into Fitzroy from Halls Creek and the north while the Fitzroy River Bridge is being repaired, or should we say replaced.

This actually may be a challenge as shown by Geoff Davis’s video from yesterday which shows where the Old Fitzroy River crossing use to be !!!

The other challenge is we are not even in the middle of the wet season and the rain was back last night. Not as heavy but still raining on a flooded and waterlogged land.

At the end of the video of the Old Fitzroy Crossing we have also put a few recent photos of the Fitzroy Crossing Bridge and entry on to what use to be a bridge and the Great Northern Highway between Broome and Willare on the way to Fitzroy. There are kilometres on kilometres of highway that has been washed away and needs to be replaced.

The road to recovery is going to be long and challenging but the Kimberley people are a resilient group of people who work together to overcome obstacles and challenges.

They do however need the Australian people, business, and government to walk alongside them for the long haul in the recovery period so they can once again welcome everyone back to the awe-inspiring Kimberley Region.
