Bloomfield Bridge SMS Flood Alerts

Register now for SMS alerts

The Local Government Association of Queensland (LGAQ) is excited to announce the trial of a new SMS flood alert system for the communities of Wujal Wujal, Douglas Shire, and Cook Shire. This initiative aims to keep residents and travellers informed about rising flood waters under Bloomfield Bridge.

How It Works

Five sensors have been strategically placed around the bridge and rivers to monitor water levels.

  • For Local Residents: You can opt-in to receive SMS alerts directly to your mobile phone or Facebook messenger notification.
  • For Visitors: You can choose to receive updates via Facebook Messenger only.

When water levels reach 50cm below the bridge, an alert will be sent to subscribers, with follow-up notifications if conditions worsen.
