Recent relocations for some of Quicksh*ts valuable customers 😁

13/05/2021

The Australian Government's infrastructure boost will support productivity, jobs and road safety – but rest areas must not be an afterthought.

“Truck drivers need rest areas so they can take the breaks they need to drive safely and meet their compliance obligations. But there just aren’t enough rest areas on the road system," ATA CEO Andrew McKellar said.

“Pleasingly, some states and territories are beginning to do better on planning for rest areas, with new projects and strategies released or under development in Western Australia, Tasmania and New South Wales following the strong work of ATA member associations," he said.
