[talk-au] ACW/A3 Qld refererence track

[Bob Cameron]

Well you won't be near the fault I "found" up near Monto/Mulgildie, but 
Owen's comment regarding the Bunya Highway turn through Kingaroy might 
be in your travels. ie from just south of Goomeri ACW should head 
southwest through Murgon and NOT west on Barker Creek Road further down. 
Also be worth verifying the west turn at Nanango (through Kingaroy) is 
signed.

I also left 3 fix_me's in Goomeri if you like! (shop names/type)

Bob


[out:json][timeout:25];
// gather results
(
   // query part for: “fixme=*”
   node["fixme"]({{bbox}});
   way["fixme"]({{bbox}});
);
// print results
out body;

out skel qt;
