I was on the road between Woodenbong and Stanthorpe the other day, worst sealed road I have been on for a while and there was a sign in front of a house advertising "used potholes" maybe they had sent one via post and it fell off the back of the truck.

Maybe it is one of the Speewa 158 - PDFP - pre dug fire pits that fell out of a Myswag camp trailer

Post by: Diesel Power on May 01, 2014, 02:14:13 PM: Apparently it's undercutting from excessive water from cyclone Ita.
It's above some culverts on Kangaroo creek, that's why it's been repaired so quickly.
If it was a traditional sink hole it would take weeks to fill and compact.

Angus.
