How To Add Comments to the Road Conditions Reports

ExplorOz has access to main roads, shire council and national parks road condition reporting facilities and compiles this information into an easy to read report. However, in addition to this, we depend heavily on firsthand experience from our users that have travelled the roads recently. The ExplorOz Road Condition report allows both ExplorOz Visitors and Members to add their comments on the condition/status of a road. The following Blog will provide a step by step guide on how to add a user comment to the Road Condition report.

Step 1

Navigate to the Road Conditions homepage, by selecting Road Conditions from the Articles tab in the navigation bar.

Step 2

Select the region in which the road you wish to comment on is located. To do this, hover your mouse over the corresponding state, then click the region name. For example, if you wanted to comment on the Gibb River Road, you would hover your mouse pointer over WA, and then select Kimberley Road Conditions.

Step 3

Scroll to the corresponding region/road. *Tip* If you know which area the road is located in, you can use the quick links at the top of the page.

Step 4

Click the name of the road you wish to update. Once clicked, it will expand and display a satellite image, historical data and previous comments for the road. Once the road has expanded, click the Add Comment link (to the right of the expanded data).

Step 5

Once the Add Comment link is clicked, a blank text box will appear. Simply enter your comment/information into this box and click OK. Your comment will be displayed, along with the date and your user name.

Step 6

That’s it! Done. It’s as simple as that.
