Default Flood Help; Armidale to Coffs Harbour via Waterfall Way

Hey guys, my partner and I are in Armidale and it appears we are stuck. We are suppose to be in coffs by 1:30 Tuesday. Has anyone driven waterfall way, up through urunga or down through grafting? I know grafting road is closed for now an it doesn't sound like that will change, but any advice as to how to get to our new home?

I drove it 2 years ago.
Thats most probably no use to you though.
I dont remember there being many flood ways though.
Some how I think you will have more problems the closer you get to Coffs !!
Good Luck !!

Sit tight on high ground for a day or two, then head home.

You will need to sit tight for a couple of days, I've got plenty of friends up that way, and there currently flooded everywhere.
