UPDATE 9.30am 19 June 2026
5 Tonne Load Limit on unsealed roads to be lifted from noon today across the Shire.
Please be careful when driving as many roads have been damaged after the heavy rains and it will take some time before we can repair them all.
The Shire wishes to advise that a 5 Tonne Load Limit is in place for all gravel roads within the Esperance District until further notice. This will be reviewed at midday tomorrow, Wednesday 17 June.
Shire plant and equipment, School Bus and Emergency Services are exempt.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation and we apologise for any inconvenience.
