Queensland Premier David Crisafulli has detailed the impact of ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred on schools, public transport, and supermarkets in the region. With power outages affecting hundreds of thousands of homes, the aftermath of the cyclone continues to pose challenges.
As the wild weather persists, Crisafulli has announced that schools will reopen on a case-by-case basis, with over a thousand schools closed due to the severe conditions. Parents are advised to check the status of their child’s school on a dedicated website, while NAPLAN testing will proceed as scheduled in unaffected schools.
Public transport services are gradually resuming, with limited bus services operating in various regions. Flash flooding remains a concern, prompting caution in affected areas. Efforts are underway to restore rail services and alternative bus arrangements are in place for affected train lines.
Hardship payments are being arranged for eligible residents facing challenges in the wake of the cyclone. Community recovery hubs are set to assist individuals with mental health support, financial aid, and insurance claims. The government hotline is available for those in need of assistance.
Supermarkets are expected to reopen as conditions improve, with a focus on restocking shelves and ensuring essential supplies are available to the community. Health services are also a priority, with plans in motion to resume operations and provide necessary care to patients.
Despite the disruptions caused by ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred, efforts are being made to restore normalcy and support affected residents in their recovery. The collaboration between government agencies, businesses, and the community highlights the resilience and solidarity in the face of natural disasters.
