Official Emergency Documentation


The north end of Westside Road has reopened.

We are asking people to keep travel to local traffic only - if you are travelling on Westside Road, please do not stop along the roadway.

In the coming days, residents will begin returning to their properties, including some who may be assessing significant damage or loss. Please respect their privacy during this difficult time.

Following a wildfire, hazards may remain along roadways and wildlife activity may be higher than usual. Please drive slowly, follow posted speed limits and obey all signage.

Keeping the route clear for residents, essential services and others who need access will help support the community’s recovery.
