Peak Downs highway

Peak Downs Highway Hubby and I just drove down to Theresa Creek Dam from Mackay. It was our first time here and oh boy what a road to avoid.

Hello all, I've been told by a couple of people that the Weipa Road is now bitumen. Has anyone travelled to Weipa recently? If it is not bitumen is it only suitable for 4 wheel drive?

There's a lot of road works going on and much more traffic than there used to be. Trucks, semi's, road trains, wide loads, and mining vehicles. And Caravans! Be sure you have your UHF on Ch 40.
