Launceston courier coverage

Launceston is Tasmania's second city, sitting at the junction of the South Esk and North Esk rivers at the southern end of the Tamar Valley. The CBD is compact — Brisbane and Charles Streets are the main commercial strips. Newstead (east of the CBD) and Kings Meadows (south-east) are residential and commercial growth areas. Mowbray to the north is the main residential area north of the Esk. Riverside, across the river to the north-west, has shopping and light commercial activity.

Launceston Airport (LST) at Western Junction is 15km south of the CBD — about 20 minutes drive. Air freight connections to Melbourne and Sydney are available, though services are less frequent than Hobart.
