Trail works have now started

Works have started to upgrade the walking trails in Smiths Creek Reserve to widen and stabilise the existing trails throughout the Reserve to improve the walking experience for visitors.

The works are starting from the Georges River Road entrance to the reserve and will include more than 5km of trail upgrades as well as a new 580 metre green link trail at the Leumeah end of the reserve.

These works will also ensure access to the reserve is improved for emergency services as part of Council's obligations under the Macarthur Bush Fire Risk Management Plan.

The project is expected to be completed within a month, weather permitting. All works are taking place with strict environmental controls in place to ensure the surrounding environment is protected.

These works follow the completion of an art project at the old pylons found near the Corunna Avenue entrance which showcases some of the amazing creatures that can be found in the Reserve.

Renowned artists Jason Wing and Maddison Gibbs from MadWings Murals led the art project with help from some of our Leaping Learners Early Education Centre students and educators, students from The Clontarf Foundation and the National Aboriginal Sporting Chance Academy.
