Some interesting updates for improvements to trails and facilities in the Warburton area.

O'Shannassy Aqueduct Trail - Dee Slip Bridge Project:

Acting Minister for the Environment Lily D’Ambrosio today announced plans to repair and reopen the bridge with work will start this spring and the bridge expected to reopen in early 2026. Info at Parks Victoria: www.parks.vic.gov.au/projects/melbourne-region/oshannassy-aqueduct-trail-dee-slip-bridge-project

Cement Creek Redwood Forest facility upgrades:

Visitors to the Yarra Ranges National Park will soon enjoy greater accessibility, new facilities and increased protection of the environment through the projects at the Redwood Forest. Parks Victoria, Melbourne Water and Yarra Ranges Council are working together to deliver improved visitor facilities to manage increased visitation at the site while ensuring the environment’s natural values are protected, including:

- Adding more car parking spaces
- Constructing an accessible public toilet facility
- Installing a visitor safety gate
- Constructing a visitor shelter
- Formalising sections of the existing trail network
- Construction of boardwalks, viewing platforms and fencing to support visitor accessibility and additional open space opportunities
- Re-vegetation along the Cement Creek and the Yarra River to improve river health and provide habitat.
