For more than 25 years walkers heading south from Gringer Creek campsite, have been assailed by fast and noisy road trains, and other vehicles as they walked a 200 metre stretch along the gravel road verge beside Albany Highway.
Well, no more!
Last month a small team of BTF volunteers constructed and marked a short realignment through mixed eucalypt/paperbark. While this cuts out an unpleasant route, walkers will still need to look both ways when crossing Albany Highway.
Once the weather cools realignment construction will continue a pace in 2024 with the projected completion and opening of a long realignment south of Dookanelly Campsite and other shorter realignments in Perth Hills and Frankland Districts.
