Oakey Township

Due to the maturity of the flood modelling available and the greater travel time of peak flood levels, there is the ability to provide forecast river height levels incorporating predicted rainfall. This prediction is available on Oakey Creek gauges (the Oakey Weir Park and the Oakey TM). Additionally, within the map window, you can add Flood Inundation Map layers and search for property addresses to investigate their risk to flood waters.
