More roads will bring more #FossilFuel tourists.
Imagine being on the Waterfall Way Scenic #Drive in #Bellingen and you cannot charge your electric vehicle.

“The 185 kilometre Waterfall Way scenic drive links Coffs harbour and Armidale, passing rainforest, river valleys and waterfalls, including New England and #Dorrigo National Parks”.

“Popular getaway towns reliant on #tourism are struggling to deal with a surge in visitors driving electric vehicles. Businesses rush to install electric vehicle charging to keep tourists coming back. "Imagine showing up in a #petrol car and you had to wait an hour and a half to fill up your car. You just wouldn't do it.”

The 'upgrade' for petrol drivers: "Gleniffer Road provides access between Gleniffer and Bellingen as well as access to the popular #TouristDestination of the #PromisedLand and the #NeverNeverRiver. #GlenifferRoad is also a key #detour route to the Dorrigo Plateau when Waterfall Way is closed."
