If you consult map with elevations you will see that most of the Queensland catchment already flows south west. It is only the coastal strip that flows into the sea, but that is were the population is, and that makes news. This winter, Lake Eyre will fill again, because of this present wet-season. To divert that SW water flow to the middle of the NT would require a significant slope, which would put the water underground.
But the NT already has an enormous water storage at Lake Argyle which is hardly used.
NT right next door to Qld...
..they also have a huge rain fall and they dont flood their towns when their dams get full...
like I have said many times I dont have the answers...but what we are doing doesnt make any sense to me at all...
we need some expert advice we need to make a start and get it right so it works for everyone..
I cant believe this country doesnt have a fast train..
we should have super roads.. at least joining our major cities.... we shouldnt have over crowded cities like Sydney.....with gridlock every day....
what we need is forward thinking...we need clever people not pollies.....
but instead what do we get..
lets have a ROYAL that should fix everything..
