416:. Because it is so arid, however, its mean annual flow is only about 0.7 km (570,000 acre⋅ft). There is such extreme variation that – although streamgauging records are too poor to prove it conclusively – meteorological records leave no doubt that there have been many years of zero runoff' in the entire basin (1905, 1928 and 1961 would without doubt fit into this category), whilst in very wet years such as 1974, 1977 and 2000, runoff can be as high as 6.28 km (5,090,000 acre⋅ft) or more.

The bridge is 417 metres (1,368 ft) long and is accompanied by a 5.6-kilometre (3.5 mi) highway deviation west from Camooweal. The bridge uses an unusual arch design to avoid placing pylons into the river bed which is culturally significant to the local Dugalunji people, who call the new bridge

from May to
September to not record any measurable falls at all. In extremely wet summer months such as January 1974 or March 1950, most of the catchment can receive as much as 350 millimetres (14 in) in a month or 150 millimetres (5.9 in) in a day or two. Temperatures are generally hot, with most areas having maxima of over 30 °C (86 °F) on over 225 days per year.

Extremely dry years can give the entire basin less than 100 millimetres (3.9 in) whilst in 1974, 1977 and 2000 many areas had over 800 millimetres (31 in) and some as much as 1,000 millimetres (39 in). Almost all of this rain falls in the summer, and it is quite normal for the period

During severe floods the river can be as wide as 15 to 20 kilometres (9.3 to 12.4 mi) in the upper reaches and in the lower reaches from 25 to 30 kilometres (16 to 19 mi) wide. Inundation can last for months at a time, which can disrupt road and rail transport in the area. The highest

Although it is the driest of the three main rivers of the Lake Eyre Basin, there is evidence that the
