Casino lies inland from Ballina and Lismore, and well off the main Brisbane to Sydney road routes, although it is on the Summerland Way, which is the "back way" to Brisbane from Grafton. To Grafton the road is generally of a reasonable standard, although some sections are of poorer quality compared to the Pacific Highway. The road is probably not an ideal road for a tourist to drive at night-there is more wildlife around. If the Pacific Highway is blocked by accidents, flooding or fire, the Summerland Way and Bruxner Highway are often advertised as the alternative detour route.
The Star was allowed to retain its gaming privileges on the condition that the company undertake many remedial solutions and overhaul its corporate governance, a lengthy process still in the works. The casino operations of The Star Sydney have been under manager Nicholas Weeks’ control since Oct. 17, 2022, when the New South Wales Independent Casino Commission (NICC) appointed him to govern the gaming floor. Last Friday, NSW’s gaming regulator extended Weeks’ supervision for another six months through Sept. 30, 2025. A more downmarket opportunity is to stay in one of the pubs that still offer rooms overnight. In general, there are hundreds of pubs in Australia where slot machines are installed. In total, there are several thousand gaming machines of various models at the service of users. There are some motels, mainly on either the Summerland Way or the Bruxner Highway.
