Cairns Tourist Traffic Needs Better Transit Support
A letter from a Cairns tourist criticizes diminishing tourist flow and argues for improved transit options to extend visitors’ stays. It cites changes in ship schedules from Adelaide, A U S N, and Palmer routes that shorten visits, urging action to restore winter tourist travel and local business benefits.
Shipping delays blamed on Rockhampton merchants and port practices
The article argues an 13ft channel limits ship landings and that even at 20ft passengers would be unable to land on Thursdays. It singles out W. Reid and Company in Rockhampton for pushing lighterage and port activity inland, hindering tourism and advertising efforts. The Harbour Board is criticized but a new dredge next November is expected to improve future conditions.
