This will be the final Flood Recovery Update in this form.

Roads Update

As we move further into the recovery phase the focus for roadwork has moved from short-term repairs to medium to long-term work.

Information and updates about roadwork at places such as Federal, Huonbrook and Main Arm are on our website and this will be updated monthly.

Report your road damage and potholes

It is important that you tell us about the potholes and damage to your roads. Every time we post something on social media about the roads that we fixed; people tell us about the roads we have not fixed.

We know there are many roads in a poor state, and we are doing our best with what we have.

The best way to notify us of potholes, or road damage, is via the Report It tab on our website.

Flood Recovery Hub

The Flood Recovery Centre that was managed by Resilience NSW has closed. A Recovery Hub, organised by Council and the Mullumbimby and District Neighbourhood Centre (MDNC), is now operating at the 'cottage' at the MDNC in Dalley Street.

Suncorp and Legal Aid are at the hub on Mondays and Service NSW on Wednesdays.

Note: it will be closed on Monday 19 September.

The Recovery Hub is open from 9am – 4pm.

Safe Haven in Mullumbimby

Clinicians and support workers are at the hub, seven days a week, to provide immediate care and help to people who need mental health support because of the floods.

It is a free service, and no appointment is necessary. Just drop in.
