We know its been a long time coming...the 90s has been and gone and finally we’re nearly ready to retire our old site.  We've been working hard to create you a new and improved ORC website and over the next few weeks you'll see changes happening as we get it ready for you.

Our new website will be:

• Responsive,  this means it will be easy to use on mobile devices.
• Easier to navigate.
• Easier to view alerts, whether it be a Bus alert, Civil Defence alert or River/Rainfall alert.
• Easier and more intuitive to search
  
  

While we’re working towards getting the new site ready, we welcome you to use it and share your feedback. Please bear in mind it's still a work in progress as we’re updating and adding content daily.  If you can't find the information you’re after on our new website, check back in regularly or use our old website until our new one is ready.  Thanks for your patience.
