Oodnadatta Track Formation works and Floodway Construction

Works within an 80km section of the Oodnadatta Track between Marla and Oodnadatta were completed in 2024 to ensure it can remain open or reopen earlier after rain events. The project was jointly funded by the Australian and South Australian governments.

What’s happening:

Floodways will be reconstructed, reinforced with cement, and sealed to enable vehicles to better access the track after rain events. Formation works will raise the surface level of the track in some sections to allow the road to remain open or be reopened sooner after rain events.
