Resort Access Update

Attention: Falls Creek Stakeholders

Due to the recent landslide events that have been occurring on the northern access route of the Bogong High Plains Road the Department of Transport (DoT) has now closed the road from Mt. Beauty to Falls Creek, for all access as it is impassable for vehicles. Authorities are working toward a relaxation of the road access constraints by Christmas subject to ongoing assessment of the site. This is due to the ongoing safety risk.

The southern access route from Omeo and Mitta Mitta to Falls Creek has now been re-opened for residents, staff, and urgent works contractors to enter the resort. We ask that visitation be minimised, as the resort is currently operating at a minimal capacity (limited operating days and hours of the supermarket, no medical service, and a minimum travel time of 2 hours for Emergency Service responders such as Ambulance Victoria or the Victorian Police).

We understand that summer works are due to be undertaken on buildings within the resort and may not be able to be delayed. Stakeholders attending the resort for matters of this nature may do so by accessing the road from Omeo or Mitta Mitta.

Under the Fall Creek Emergency Management Plan, Falls Creek Alpine Resort is required to know who is in the resort in the case of an emergency situation, so you can be notified. Therefore, we ask anyone intending to visit/stay in the resort over the next two months to register their intention to visit via the form in the button below.

Please share this information with any contractors you may engage to conduct works on your property until at least Christmas.
