Mundaring Closures

I'll just fetch the paper out of the bin

Yes I also read it, couldn’t remember if it was a follow up report or if it had been mentioned on here some months back.

Is this the aria including the Power line Track and surrounding tracks?

They say it is due to track erosion and mud from this erosion ending up in the weir if I remember correctly, Personally I can’t see how a Small 4WD track running throe the bush would cause such a big problem.

Closing the track a specific times of the year and possibly also for 6 months to a year to allow for some repair/ rejuvenation work to happen would be a better option IMO.

They say there will be a small section like 3k’s or something suitable for all I.E AWD and 4WD’s.

Whoohoo 3k’s big K’s

Isn't that part of the area that Rally Australia uses .?? albeit in the now past tense seeing as you Westralians no longer want a World Class event on your doorsteps?

I was up there on Sunday. It is all still accessible but technically off limits (has been for some time). When I found myself at L300 / CV Hill I knew I was in the closed off area and left. There were no signs in the closed off areas that I saw.

This is a problem because only those in the loop are aware of what is shut and what is legal and to add to the problem, you really need a GPS to be compliant.

The powerlines are still OK (albeit a bit boring).

I have some documentation from CALM outlining the closures Michelle. If you can e-mail me I'd be happy send it to you. Another option is to check out Perth4x4.net and it is all clearly outlined here......

Hope this is of assistance to you.

Hi Michelle,

Track Care WA is having a meeting tomorrow night with a presentation by CALM on the issue. I believe this invitation sent to WC4X4 is an open invite sent to all 4WD clubs and interested bodies.

TCWA meeting - January 18

Meeting Place: “Gurney Centre” 1 Fred Bell Parade, East Victoria Park.

Meeting Time: 7.00pm

Details: MUNDARING CLOSURES & CALM PRESENTATION Please be advised that as of late Monday afternoon the CALM - Hills District Office will be in attendance as Guest Speakers and giving a presentation at our 18th January 2006 meeting. This will be an opportunity to find out first hand what the process is and why the Mundaring area will be closed to all future 4WDriving. Discuss future opportunities and alternative areas and the process to attain such access. Please show your support for Track Care by attending this presentation from CALM and check out our new meeting venue at the same time. I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible. Message sent to WC4X4 by Debbie Duncan - acting Chairperson for TCWA.

Cheers

Thanks for all your responses.
I haven't yet received a copy of the article from the West yet, but I've got an offer there I'll wait for. No urgency really just want to make sure I keep up to date with this issue. If anyone can get to the Track Care meeting tonight, it would be worthwhile to hear what CALM are going to say, and good to show a concerned presence!
