Pending approval from the RTA and local councils where appropriate, the NPWS
may temporarily close the public vehicle access system during high fire danger
periods, adverse weather conditions or local emergencies.
NPWS managed public vehicular access trails within the parks will be managed
to an appropriate trafficable condition and will be clearly sign posted including
symbol signs showing the type of access approved for the particular trail.
Recreational vehicles will be expected to follow minimal impact driving codes
within the parks.
Actions
The Bala Range Trail will be gated near the park boundary at the western end of
“New Place”.
The NPWS will negotiate with the relevant councils and landowners regarding the
management of the Old Settlers Road, Howes Trail and Yango Trail to prevent
illegal access to private property and damage to these roads irrespective of
tenure, particularly during wet weather.
Clear park identification and vehicle directional signage will be provided along
park entrance and public access roads.
The one way designated sections of the Big Yango Loop will be indicated in the
Big Yango brochure and signposted if required.
Impacts on Big Yango tracks and trails will be monitored through the access
permit system and through visitor surveys and field observations.
The NPWS will implement measures to curtail the unauthorised use of tracks and
trails by increasing ranger patrols in trouble spots, erecting regulatory sign
posting and by the placement of gates at strategic locations.
