The eastern side of the Hutt River Trail between Melling Link and Kennedy Good bridges will remain closed to walkers and cyclists until we have completed all of the river work.

You can learn more about what we're doing on our river protection page.

We are committed to reopening the trail as soon as it is feasible, but the site has considerable hazards - unstable rock piles, uneven surfaces and heavy machinery.

Trail users will need to continue following the alternative route. Thank you for your patience and cooperation while we complete this important work.
