I'm driving down to Melbourne tomorrow and have spent the morning trying to find what roads are closed in Victoria due to the floods.
Does anyone know for sure if any part of the Hume hwy is closed?

Cheers,
Andy

This is the VicRoads info, don't know about "over the border":D

VicRoads - Flood Traffic Alert (http://mobiletraffic.vicroads.vic.gov.au/floodalerts)

NSW looks a bit more involved (what else is new!)

RTA Live Traffic NSW (http://livetraffic.rta.nsw.gov.au/)

Give them a ring (vicroads) and tell them your planned route. The website can be a bit out of date especially when the info comes from local authorities.

Thanks for the replies :2tsup:

I arrived in Melbourne last night - no road blocks!

Any good woodworking shops/galleries that anyone can recommend me going to?
