Traffic Management Plan Summary

As part of our traffic management plan, the festival will:

  1. Implement one-way traffic on Meredith-Mt Mercer Road from Bamganie Road to Cameron Road from approximately 4am the day prior to the festival to approximately 7pm on the first day of the festival.
  2. Divert traffic travelling to Meredith within the one-way zone down Cameron Road.
  3. Station traffic controllers to the corner of Midland Highway and Staughton Street on the final day of the festival to assist vehicles turning left or right onto Midland Highway.
  4. Install no-parking zones along Meredith-Mt Mercer Road and some surrounding roads.

Vehicle passes are distributed to properties along Meredith-Mt Mercer (town side) and Coopers Roads a week before the festival. If you are unsure if you need a vehicle pass, please email Aunty.

Shuttle Service

We notify the public via our website and various emails that they should bring what they need with them. However, we anticipate some people will drive into Meredith over the weekend to stock up on some items. We provide a free shuttle bus service to help decrease additional vehicles on the roads.
