Donnelly River

Diversions & Other Impacts

• Beavis shelter maintenance

  Location: North of Pemberton

  Walkers are advised that maintenance work will be done at Beavis Campsite on Saturday, September 7.

  Work will occur from approximately 7.30 am until mid-afternoon; the campsite should be cleared of workers and tools after that time.

  However, the work will include the application of varnish to the sleeping platforms, and oil to the tables. Drying time may be up to 24 hours, with the sleeping platform likely to be unsuitable for use that evening.

  Walkers planning to stay at Beavis on Sept 7 are advised to plan accordingly.

  The work will be undertaken by volunteers from the Bibbulmun Track Foundation, on the annual Donnelly District field day.

• Closure of vehicle access points

  Location: Between Donnelly River Village and Graphite Rd

  Tom Road and Panda Road (previously Donnelly Drive) have been closed indefinitely to vehicles between the intersections of Gregory/Tom roads and Gregory/Gordon roads due to the deterioration of road bridges and lack of funding for the department to repair them.

  Vehicle points marked on the map to access the Bibbulmun Track at these points will no longer be available from 22 April 2015.
