More Roadside Facilities for WA Travellers

Most caravanners like to travel at about 85km per hour for four or five hours before stopping for a break. That means there needs to be roadside rest stops and facilities every 300 - 350km. Tourism WA is working on a plan to make this a reality on WA roads.
The plan will identify gaps in the road system where extra facilities such as water, toilets, showers and waste disposal need to be available. With sooooo many kms to travel between many (mostly northern) towns in WA, it is vital that there are safe and convenient road stops to have a break or stay the night. While good caravan park facilities are essential when you get to your destination, the journey is just as important!
