The Combined Action to Retain Routes for Travelling Stock Inc.
(CARRTS) is a not-for-profit entity that’s been formed to deal with the ever increasing bureaucratic difficulties associated with drovers and graziers being able to drive livestock through the Travelling Stock Routes and reserves (TSRs). The increasing use of long term leases in some areas that inhibit use of the TSRs for their proper purpose and isn’t conducive to sound environmental outcomes, is a major issue. Also the daily difficulties drovers and graziers in some areas experience when dealing with Local Land Services TSR Rangers that are obstructive, lacking in knowledge and unaccountable is having a detrimental long-term effect on the livestock industry’s crucial dependence and access to this invaluable resource. CARRTS represents drovers and graziers giving them a voice to advocate for change.
