The Queensland Government is urging Google to amend its Maps application over claims inflated travel times are deterring tourists from travelling to the outback.
Acting Premier Cameron Dick has vowed to send a letter to the Head of Google Australia and New Zealand in regards to incorrect travel times that add up to 6 hours onto journeys.
He said it was crucial the error was fixed early in 2019, which the Government has declared the “Year of Outback Tourism”.
