Final Plan Infrastructure and Services that Support Positive Visitor Experiences replaced by Next Generation mobile services. It is unknown what impact this will have on coverage which was previously limited to a small number of towns on main transport routes. Access to high speed ADSL broadband is not available in the Unincorporated Areas. The only broadband internet coverage is through radio satellite. Waste Management The Blinman and Innamincka Communities and the Iga Warta operators expressed the desire to increase their ability to recycle and use treated greywater. Several people mentioned the importance of ensuring that all public toilets were low water use or self composting where practical. Innamincka is also seeking a facility to enable hard waste to be recycled. Tourist Amenities Specific mention was made of the need for toilets and shelter at the Lake Hart viewing area, picnic facilities in an upgraded Blinman Town Park and shelters with water and signage at regular intervals along the Oodnadatta track to assist people who have broken down to identify their location to rescue vehicles.

Final Plan Infrastructure and Services that Support Positive Visitor Experiences Safety in the Bush Several outback communities expressed the need for practical assistance to improve their ability to provide an initial emergency rescue response. This includes training, provision of equipment and post incident counselling and support. While there is a plethora of information available some people considered that tourists still don’t understand how to travel safely in remote areas. The DEH Desert Parks Pass booklet is a good guide to visitor safety in the outback and could be promoted more before people commence their journey. Desert Knowledge CRC is currently undertaking a project called On Track 4WD Tourism which includes the use of a geographic information system called Visualising Relatively Unpredictable Movement (VRUM) to map out flows of 4WD travellers across the desert. ‘Safe Travel’ protocols for visitors and settlements have been identified as one potential outcome of the project. (Source: www.desertknowledgecrc.com.au/research/4wdtourism.html) The Department of Transport, Energy and Infrastructure (DTEI) is working on a safe driving brochure for the Flinders Ranges and Outback. Information Provision The Wadlata Outback Interpretive Centre in Port Augusta provides an excellent introduction to the Flinders Ranges, Outback South Australia and beyond. It is the region’s preeminent Visitor Information Centre and should be the focus of a network of accredited Visitor Information Centres and Outlets. It is important that visitors receive professional, friendly and unbiased information about the complete range of accommodation options, tours and activities available across the region. Staff and volunteers in each accredited centre must know enough about the whole region to be able to refer them to specific experiences that match their interests. Volunteers in local Visitor Information Outlets can then promote those local activities and experiences that add special meaning to the journey. They can recommend their favourite lookout for sunset views, the best pub for catching up with the locals, picnic spots off the beaten tracks and where to catch the local bowls, football, netball or cricket game.
