Victorians race to get home ahead of COVID border closure, leaving NSW tourism operators in tears
It took less than an hour for Victorian guests at the Garden of Eden Caravan Park in Eden, on the NSW South Coast, to start checking out after the Victorian Government yesterday announced plans to close its border with NSW.
Key points:
- Victoria will close its border to NSW from January 2
- Victorian residents holidaying in NSW have been rushing to get back across the border
- Some Victorians say they are unsure when they will be allowed home with the border permit restrictions
Acting Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan told Victorians the state would close its border to all of NSW from January 2 because of an increase in case numbers in NSW, where 10 new cases were confirmed on Thursday.
