  • Tallowa Dam Road is closed for major repairs until mid-2027.

    NPWS · Partial closure

    Tallowa Dam Road is closed for major repairs until mid-2027.

    Tallowa Dam Road is closed for major repairs until mid-2027. The National Parks and Wildlife Service is undertaking major repair works on a 1.5-kilometere section of the Tallowa Dam Road in Morton National Park, which was extensively damaged from flooding between 2022-2025. Technical investigations confirm that substantial reconstruction works are required to stabilise and restore the road for safe use. Repair work is expected to start in late 2026 and be completed by mid-2027. Until work is completed, there is no vehicle access to the Tallowa Dam from Tallowa Dam Road. Visitors can still access the area via Beehive Point or Bendeela, and the Three Views Walking Track is open. Motorists are advised to expect an increase in heavy vehicle traffic on Tallowa Dam Road when work commences, and possible short delays during construction hours of 7am – 5pm. The work aims to restore safe access, improve resilience to future weather events and reduce the risk of ongoing closures. We thank the community for their patience while we undertake this essential work. For progress update visit the webpage at: www.environment.nsw.gov.au/tallowa-dam-road-repair, or the national parks webpage for park closure alerts.
