Sun 1 Mar - Thu 31 Dec Blue Mountains National Park - Grand Canyon Walking Track - PARTIAL CLOSURE FOR RESTORATION

Details: Grand Canyon Walking Track PARTIAL CLOSURE FOR RESTORATION
The Grand Canyon Walking Track is over 100 years old and receives approximately 30,000 visitors each year.
Plans to restore parts of the track are in progress. Works are programmed to begin around March 2009.
Works will commence on the Neates Glen section of the track. Work on this section is expected to take approximately 10 months.
The restoration will include recutting stone steps, repairing staircases, installing new stepping stones across Greaves Creek, building a new footbridge, drainage and new barrier fencing. It will be painstaking work in a very difficult and inaccessible work site, subject to weather extremes.
The completed works however will be the first stage to improve access to the Grand Canyon and restore the past glory of the original track for future generations to enjoy.
For these works to take place as SAFELY and EFFICIENTLY as possible the worksite will need to be CLOSED while works are in progress.
It is anticipated that Neates Glen will be CLOSED from March 2009 to December 2009. Every effort will be made to open the track on weekends and public holidays during this period.
Access to the canyon from Evans Lookout should remain open with minimum disruption.
We appreciate your patience and hope you will enjoy visiting the improved site once the work is finished.
Please contact the NPWS Heritage Centre for further updates and progress reports. NPWS Heritage Centre is open 7 days a week for visitor information. Tel: 4787 8877
