G'day
I searched but could find nothing recent.
Which road(s) is the current access for the Arm River Track?
Cheers

Mersey Forest Rd onto Arm Rd then left fork onto Maggs Rd, then turn left just before the road block.
You can’t use the shorter route to Arm River Track anymore.

Yes - it was very curious and fortunate that we took Maggs.
You could see the other road from the turn off to the car park, but they have dumped a heap of dirt across to block that access.

Was up there yesterday, the boulders are now piled over with scrub, careful in the dark. It's a shame the money couldn't be found for the bridge and maintain the loop, it's not unusual be have the Maggs road blocked by fallen trees (and further limited ways to escape a fire). Anyhow, yeah, the road is in better condition than ever, other than the last couple of klm's.
