The Central Coast, with its marvellous white sand coated beaches is one of Australia’s most iconic holiday time destinations and as a result, receives over 1.3 million domestic overnight visitors each year. [1]
Such large, seasonal influxes of tourists has a profoundly positive effect on the local economy but also brings with it, its own set of inherent problems.
It is an absolute necessity to improve local roads and develop infrastructure that can cope with the holiday surges in both vehicles and pedestrian traffic. Creating a safer environment for children and families on holiday is a fundamental aim of the Little Blue Dinosaur.
Through the creation and strategic distribution of posters, banners, noticeboard insets and other signage at key tourist hot spots and thoroughfares, the Holiday Time campaign is able to take full effect. The campaign serves as an important reminder to the local community and tourist community about the importance of children’s safety.
This campaign is now operating in 25 local government areas areas and will continue to expand to further coastal and holiday areas around Australia.
