South Australia opens to regional NSW

Residents of regional NSW are now permitted to visit South Australia, with border restrictions having been eased at midnight.

However, travel restrictions will remain in place for people from Greater Sydney, the Central Coast, the Blue Mountains and the Wollongong area.

Anyone outside of these areas is now free to travel into South Australia on the proviso they get a COVID-19 test on days one, five and 12 of their stay.

South Australia imposed a hard border on NSW on January 1 as the northern beaches and Croydon clusters grew.
