Access to Nambour limited
Sunshine Coast Council’s Local Disaster Management Group
Co-ordinator Mr Alan Rogers has advised that access to the
Nambour Hospital is extremely limited.
“The only access road to the Hospital from the Coast is via the
Bruce Highway taking the Parkland’s exit north to Nambour.
“With major rainfall moving from the Coast to the Hinterland,
problems associated with waters rising very quickly have caused
significant safety concerns this evening,” Mr Rogers said.
“Motorists are advised to avoid the West Woombye, Palmwoods,
Eudlo and Nambour areas. At Maleny, the detour at Bridge Creek
Road has been washed away
“I’m asking residents to remain indoors and avoid travelling on
roads if at all possible.
“With the potential for similar rainfall tomorrow, please listen
to local radio for regular updates about conditions and log on to
the Bureau of Meteorology website for weather warnings.”
Council’s Facebook site at www.facebook.com/SunshineCoastCouncil
is being updated regularly with information. You can also follow
us on Twitter at @CouncilSCC.
In life threatening situations call Triple Zero (000) and for
emergency assistance from SES call 132500.
Residents wanting to make enquiries about rates notices are asked
to postpone contact with council and avoid website enquiries
until after the weather event.
Parents are advised to check the Department of Education’s
website or Facebook page in the morning for the most up-to-date
advice about schools.
