May & June 2026 dates to be advised.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Don't complain to us. Contact a politician instead.
Demand future proof roads that will cope with increasing natural disasters.
Ask for so called alternative routes such Summervilles Road to be sealed and widened to two lanes.
Note that detours such as East Dorrigo Way, Coutts Crossing / Grafton or Oxley Highway are too long for us to comply with driving hour limitations and not miss half of our stops. The Friday service to Tamworth is too long even via Summervilles Road.
Information about the road reopening has been vague. If we get advice in time, we might be able to reinstate some of the above services (early April 2026 is a date now being circulated). March update - Summervilles Road detour has had some minor repairs, and we have reinstated a few more services. Expect delays of up to half an hour per trip.
