Gympie Regional Council has confirmed that semi-trailers and B-Doubles are allowed to park overnight on a bitumened area opposite the showgrounds in Moore Street, Goomeri.<\/p>\n

This follows controversy on social media earlier this week where truckies were sharing a letter – apparently from Goomeri Police – warning they could be fined for overnighting in Moore Street (the stretch of the Burnett Highway which runs through Goomeri).<\/p>\n

The letter stated that from July 1, police would be enforcing a road regulation that prohibited heavy motor vehicles from parking for more than an hour in a built-up area.<\/p>\n

This followed complaints about noisy air-conditioners and refrigeration units on trucks stopped overnight.<\/p>\n

A Council spokesperson supplied a map (above) to southburnett.com.au<\/strong> which shows the area where trucks are allowed to park.<\/p>\n

However, there is a second paved area to the north which is not included in this Council-controlled area.<\/p>\n

“This one comes under the Traffic Act,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
