Government performs backflip on paid Great Ocean Road parking in ‘win for common sense’

Heidi Murphy is reporting the state government has performed a backflip on a proposal to introduce paid parking for sections of the Great Ocean Road.

Initially revealed on Tuesday, Heidi says the plan has mysteriously disappeared from the official website after Attorney-General Jaclyn Symes quietly wound back support for the parking plan.
