Fernvale Floods 2011 - Brisbane Valley Highway and Poole Rd

Video provided by Dennis Ward, coordinator of the Fernvale and Surrounding Region Action Group that was formed after the floods to represent the interests of flood affected local residents.

There has been little coverage of the floods in Fernvale on YouTube, possibly because most of the people who had their homes inundated lost their computer equipment.

Many residents of Fernvale were very hard hit by the floods with water coming first from local creeks in one direction and later from the Brisbane River in the opposite direction. Many residents found they were not covered by insurance and some are still unable to live in their homes (@July 2011)
