NSW Bundjalung rest area receives upgrade

Upgrades to the Bundjalung rest area in New South Wales have now been completed.

The Bundjalung rest area, according to Transport for NSW, is a popular area for transport operators in the region.

It’s located around 15 kilometres north of the Iluka turn off on the Pacific Motorway, and the latest facilities were designed to meet the needs of heavy vehicle drivers travelling north towards Brisbane.

The additional facilities incorporated are about 200 metres north of the existing rest area facilities, closer to where drivers park their heavy vehicles.

They include a toilet block with four toilets (including a disabled toilet), three picnic shelters, footpaths and associated infrastructure.

A Transport for NSW spokesperson emphasised the State Government’s awareness as to how essential regular rests are for drivers of both heavy and passenger vehicles. 

“These upgraded facilities will encourage them to do just that and are all part of the NSW Government measures to make our roads safer,” the spokesperson said.

“Truckies will have easy access back to the highway so we believe it will be very popular.”
