Council is supporting the Transport for NSW Plan B - Win A Swag initiative, encouraging everyone to plan how they will get home safely if they choose to drink while celebrating this summer.
The campaign highlights that even a few drinks can affect your driving. By planning a safe way home, you will be making the right choice for yourself and others on the road.
Throughout December and January, patrons at participating venues across western NSW can scan a QR code and enter for the chance to win a swag valued at around $250 by simply sharing their Plan B for getting home safely.
