Went for a drive today doing some recce work and was following a road that came to a locked gate. It was a gazetted road on four different maps so couldn't understand why the gate would be locked without any signage.
Decided to go to the nearest farm house to see if they could give me some questions. Well this led to an interesting conversation.
To start with they denied that the road was even there but after showing them the maps they quickly changed their tune and then tried to say it was locked for conservation purposes???? Asked how they could just lock a road and then they gave me some story about the goverment.
Going to the council this week to see if I can get some clarification on this.
If it is true then it is just another case of locking gates in the name of conservation. Seems to be happening alot now in Tasmania.
