This week’s wet weather is a reminder to drive to the conditions on Cape Tribulation Bloomfield Road.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐬.
If you intend to drive this route, you are strongly advised to check weather conditions beforehand.
The road is only partially sealed with very steep ranges and natural creek crossings.
𝐈𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐲 𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧.
Motorists should exercise caution when attempting to traverse natural creek crossings.
Road conditions in the Wet Tropics can change quickly.
Gravel coverage on some sections were washed away during the wet season.
Over the past days we’ve received rainfall, and the road can become slippery.
You should always drive slowly and carefully, particularly if you are not used to unsealed roads.
