Travelling South These Holidays?
If you’re heading south into New South Wales these holidays then here are a few tips we can share with you after making the trip south from Hervey Bay to Newcastle last Thursday.
Brisbane
Try to get through Brisbane outside of the peak travel times. This was the scene at about 7am on this side of the Pine ‘River as traffic slowed to a crawl and stayed that way almost right through to the Gateway Bridge.

New South Wales
Once you’re across the border and through the Tugun Bypass be prepared for a lot of roadwork with plenty of lengthy delays right through till you’ve reached Woolgoolga and then more delays south of Port Macquarie around Kew.
We travelled home on Sunday and most of the roadworks had stopped for the weekend so the trip home took about an hour less than the trip down.
