People who live on the river should relocate any equipment, boats or pontoons that can be moved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Hadspen, there are some properties that could flood in the south of town, near where the Meander and the South Esk meet. The Lions Club Reserve will likely flood, along with the boat ramp and playground. Houses and roads near Beams Hollow may also flood. The stormwater systems in this part of Hadspen have been known to back up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Blackstone Heights, Blackstone Park will likely flood. Very heavy rain could cause landslips along the river, possibly affecting houses. There may also be flooding on the main access roads, Panorama Rd and Blackstone Rd, causing temporary isolation. It is possible that Meander Valley Rd could flood, isolating Travellers Rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intense rainfall can cause flash flooding or overland flow. This kind of flooding is hard to predict and depends on where the rain falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The maps in this guide show the level of flooding that has a 1% chance of happening any year, known as the annual exceedance probability (AEP). You are likely to experience flooding such as that shown in the maps in your lifetime. Tasmanians need to prepare for flood events that may not happen often as well as the minor flooding they may have experienced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if your home is not inundated, you should be prepared for isolation plus potential power and telecommunications outages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roads that could be flooded include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Meander Valley Rd<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Westwood Rd, at the bridge<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Blackstone Rd<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Panorama Rd<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on where the rain falls and how heavy it is, minor roads and driveways throughout this area may also be impassable. Travel in the area is likely to be difficult or impossible until roads are clear.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jika anda selamat di rumah atau di tempat lain, biasanya lebih baik anda terus berada di sana sehingga banjir surut, kecuali jika berlaku kecemasan. Sekiranya anda perlu berpindah, anda perlu beredar awal, sebelum air banjir naik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to ABC local radio 91.7FM for warnings and advice or check TasALERT.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To see the maps in detail,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ses.tas.gov.au\/ms\/floodmaps\/\">lihat Peta Banjir Strategik Tasmania<\/a> on the SES website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"725\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/d2tv960yzi0spr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Travellers-Rest-flood-map-1pc-AEP-725x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Travellers rest flood map 1% AEP\" class=\"wp-image-10855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2tv960yzi0spr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Travellers-Rest-flood-map-1pc-AEP-725x1024.jpg 725w, https:\/\/d2tv960yzi0spr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Travellers-Rest-flood-map-1pc-AEP-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/d2tv960yzi0spr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Travellers-Rest-flood-map-1pc-AEP-768x1085.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2tv960yzi0spr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Travellers-Rest-flood-map-1pc-AEP-1087x1536.jpg 1087w, https:\/\/d2tv960yzi0spr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Travellers-Rest-flood-map-1pc-AEP-1449x2048.jpg 1449w, https:\/\/d2tv960yzi0spr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Travellers-Rest-flood-map-1pc-AEP-scaled.jpg 1811w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 725px) 100vw, 725px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adakah anda berisiko banjir?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This area has seen large floods in recent years, including 2022 and 2016.
