ANZAC Day 2026 Road Closures
Published on 22 April 2026
Warrumbungle Shire Council advises that temporary road closures will be in place across all six towns on Saturday, 25 April 2026 to support Anzac Day commemorations.
These closures are necessary to ensure the safety of veterans, participants and the wider community during Dawn Services and Anzac Day Marches. Traffic control measures will be implemented in each town, with clearly signed detours in place.
Motorists are advised to plan ahead, follow all signage and allow extra travel time, particularly during the early morning services and mid-morning marches.
Council staff will install road closure signage and barriers approximately 30 minutes prior to each event. Roads will be reopened as soon as it is safe to do so following the conclusion of services and marches.
