Since our Community Day in June, East Gippsland Water has installed bollards and gates as their contribution to the track blockage project. Excellent signage has also been attached to the gates. Sadly, 2 of the bollards have already been removed, probably by those wishing to continue their inappropriate use of the tracks. The bollards have been retrieved and will be replaced in concrete when the rest of the blockage programme take place.

A submission for a Parks Victoria ‘Healthy Parks, Healthy People’ grant was made on the 24th July. In it we outlined proposals for track blockage (2 gates, one tonne rocks and timber bollards), minor entry, directional and interpretive signage, 600 seedlings, guards and stakes and seating plus low table. If our submission is accepted we hope to start installation of gates etc by the end of this year.
