Garie Boardriders: Garie Road

Hi Current and Past Members,

Here is the lastest update about Garie Road that came through today from NPWS:

Good morning everyone,
By now you may have heard that Garie Road has been impacted by the recent rainfall events.

Garie Road

Yesterday at approximately 12.00pm Transport for NSW advised that the road surface had dropped about 5 cm overnight and that as a result the road would be completely closed to all vehicles.
Garie road is a Transport for NSW asset
We have been advised that Transport will be conducting geotechnical testing sometime within the next to weeks which will provide a clearer understanding of the situation
The Garie precinct, buildings etc will remain closed to everyone throughout this period

Garie Headland

Garie Headland path remains closed
Several new rock and landslips were identified in the recent drone survey
We are also waiting on the latest geotechnical advice related to Garie Headland and this path of travel will remain closed until this report is received and necessary works can be implemented
Works on Garie headland may be delayed due to access issues associated with Garie Road

Garawarra farm road

Garawarra farm road remains open to key holders to access the car park and burgh ridge track
Works on the road have been delayed due to the weather
The road is will be opened to the public from this weekend and closed again when works are underway

Access

We ask that visits to Little Garie cabins be restricted to essential trips during this period and are accessed via The Burgh Ridge track
No alternative access is being considered at this stage however the situation will be reassessed when further information is available from Transport
