C.Y. O’Connor Reserve – Lookout Point Closure

The City of Cockburn have advised that due to recent storms, the sand beneath the lookout at C.Y. O’Connor Reserve has been severely undermined. For safety reasons, the path around the lookout will be closed until a realignment is completed in August which will prevent this from happening again.

Please note there will be no connecting path available between C.Y. O’Connor Reserve and the southbound dual use path during this period. Robb Road from Rollinson Road to McTaggart Cove is an alternative route for more confident bike riders and commuters. 

The City apologises for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your cooperation. Safety is their top priority, and they are working diligently to restore the lookout point and pathway.
