Road Limits and Closures
It is necessary at times for Council to put in place complete or partial road closures and/or restrictions across the Shire. This may be due to road works, large projects, community events, weather conditions or seasonality.
Seasonal road closures and vehicle weight restrictions apply on a number of local roads from July to September inclusive each year. The restrictions are in accordance with the Council Plan to maintain and enhance the Shire's network of roads.
This page outlines any upcoming closures that road users should be aware of.

Jamieson-Licola Road
Part of Jamieson-Licola Road is closed from Thursday 11 June 2026 to Thursday 29 October 2026 inclusive.
The section affected is from the Mt Sunday Road intersection, approximately 36km from Jamieson and at elevation 1200m, through to the Mansfield/Wellington Shire boundary.
The road closure has been brought forward due to significant snowfall, making the road impassable to traffic.
