Victorian Four Wheel Drive Tracks Seasonal Closures 1996. This is the 1996 track closure list, we will keep it for "posterity" and to compare with later years. Sadly (as of '98) the page seems to be getting bigger each year. The current 4x4 track page is [here]. Most seasonal track closures run until 31/10/96 but they may be extended due to bad weather, for example. Check with the local NRE Office before travelling.
