The line up waiting to go through Cunningham's Gap...My family and I live about 15 minutes past Cunningham's Gap and back in February when we had really wild and wet weather there was a huge landslide on the top of the Gap. This has meant that specialist have had to come in and cut away much of one part of the face of the cliff and try to stabilize it.
So for the last four weeks we have had closures up there. You can't get through. This is from 9 to 11am and again from 1 to 3pm. Very inconvenient for freight trucks and visitors that have no clue. Either you turn around and go where ever you want to go via Toowoomba or you wait for two hours...
The other day I was coming back home after picking up Toby and had about 2 minutes to wait before we were able to get through the Gap again. The wait was very short as I tried really hard to time it so that I wouldn't have to wait too long with a dog that was not used to being in my car or with me...
It is amazing the work that they are doing up there. One of the lanes is currently permanently blocked off as they store a heap of equipment there. The sheer enormity was just amazing. I wish I had of been able take a picture of the actual cliff face but was driving and had to concentrate on the dog as well. They say they will complete the job by the end of May which is a couple of weeks longer than originally stated. Glad they are doing it though.
My hat goes off to them. They are doing a fantastic job. :)
Cheers Damaris
