Loch Sport residents who have witnessed travel ban breaches are calling for better enforcement to prevent COVID-19 spreading to their isolated community.
RESIDENTS in one of the Wellington Shire’s popular tourist hot spots are calling for better enforcement of lockdown rules, after dozens of tourists believed to be from Melbourne visited during the travel ban.
Several groups of people are suspected to have spent the past two weekends in holiday accommodation in Loch Sport, and have come to the attention of local shop owners and residents.
One resident, who did not want to be named, said a large group of up to 12 young adults had been heard in several shops boasting about being from the northern suburbs of Melbourne, and had not been wearing masks or socially distancing.
