Fill up the car! WA border restrictions are easing: where you can and can’t go.
There has been so much information this past month from the government about what we can and can’t do we know it is overwhelming. We are all itching to get out and about, one thing we do know is that the easing of the regional borders in WA is something everyone is reading up on.
As of the 29th of May 2020 the restrictions are being lifted and the new regional boundaries will allow:
As of the 29.05.20 WA regional borders have opened up even more! Excluding the Kimberley region, we are able to travel all the way up to Exmouth! In line with that advice, Western Australia’s hard border with the rest of the country will remain in place, and will likely be the final restriction lifted.
That means that travel will be permitted between the Pilbara, Gascoyne, North-West, Goldfields-Esperance, Wheatbelt, Great Southern, South West, Peel and Perth.
As we are sure you are aware, there is a long weekend coming up! Western Australia Day long weekend is Monday 1 June. So for those of us in Perth looking for some inspiration on where to go, these are our top picks:

Our service department is open and ready to service your vehicle. We service all makes & models, ask us about express maintenance, or we can even come to you!
