Daintree ‘divided’ to three areas due to massive landslides following Cyclone Jasper

Douglas Shire Mayor Michael Kerr says the Daintree region has been “divided” into three areas due to the massive landslides in the region. Many parts of region have begun clean-up efforts following immense flooding which came from ex-Tropical Cyclone Jasper. “So you’ve got the Forest Creek Road in Cape Kimberley, then you’ve got the Cow Bay area – you’ve got another massive, big landslide just before Cow Bay, you’ve got another massive landslide just before Cape Tribulation,” he told Sky News contributor Steve Price. “So the three areas are completely separated, they can’t get to each other and it’s going to be major work. “The one that’s stopping just before Cape Tribulation is at least 110 metres wide, it’s a huge drop, and that one’s going to certainly take some geotech specialist to make that work.”
