Doon Doon and Commissioners Creek Flood Feedback Form

Council is seeking feedback on where roads flood that affect Doon Doon and Commissioners Creek residents from travelling to and from Murwillumbah and Kyogle. We are asking for your local knowledge to understand the limitations of the existing road network so we can begin to examine options for access when McCabe's Bridge is inundated by the raising of the wall of Clarrie Hall Dam. Our project to raise the wall of Clarrie Hall Dam is in its initial studies phase, ahead of Concept Planning, but we know the issue of access when McCabe's Bridge goes under is important to you. Your feedback will help us get the access options on the table so we can then come back to you - as a community - to talk about it. We anticipate we will have the information we need to hold constructive conversations and answer some of your questions about April 2017.
