Article from: Caravan Industry News

One of the most commonly asked questions amongst those towing is

“What is ……. Road like? Has anyone been on it recently?”

Up to date information on road conditions is available in each state, and usually comes from a part of the Government who really are there to help you.

They want all the people using their roads to be aware of the conditions and avoid the roads that are simply impassable. As always, wherever you drive, it is important to drive to the conditions and to ensure that the tyre pressure in both car and van are right for the type of road you will be driving on.

The simplest way to find out about the road conditions is by checking out the local traffic authority website. We’ve listed the details below:
