Thank you for providing feedback on the replacement of the Warrungup Springs boardwalk.
You have told us that you would like to see the boardwalk retained in its current position, along with the addition of seating for those who want to relax and enjoy the view along the way. The new boardwalk will follow the same structure as the current boardwalk with a few minor changes to the design:
It will be slightly wider to accommodate 2 people side by side
The balustrade will be moved to the other side of the boardwalk to provide uninterrupted views
Seating will be added to rest along the way
View the Concept Design for more detail. For the materials, we are considering an FRP structure with an Accoya timber deck, FRP uprights on the balustrade, and a stainless steel handrail along the top. This structure, without the balustrade, mirrors the boardwalk that DBCA built in Lake Goegrup boardwalk in Parklands.
Both male and female Bindjareb Elders have been consulted on this boardwalk replacement and we are committed to respecting the history of the site when the replacement work begins.
This is expected to begin early in the 24/25 financial year.
UPDATE: The Warrungup Springs boardwalk renewal is scheduled for the 2024/25 financial year. The boardwalk will be closed until the process of awarding a contractor to replace it is completed. We expect this to be between November and December 2024. Pedestrian access through the reserve along the main path on the foreshore will remain open.
The City understands the inconvenience this may cause. However, given the high estimated maintenance costs to keep it open, the City is prioritising the renewal to occur within the next six months. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we renew this beautiful spot, so our community can continue enjoying it.
These works are needed to improve the safety of the boardwalk but are also an opportunity to improve the accessibility and usability of the space.The replacement of this boardwalk is part of our annual boardwalk renewal program to replace boardwalks across the city to maintain or improve our places and spaces.
