New look for damaged boardwalk after fire

Shire president Michael Aspinall said it expected to repair 138m of boardwalk on the Jim Gordon VC Trail, which was burnt in a recent fire.

‘The Shire is hoping to claim insurance for the damage and will be carrying out the works in consultation with the Department of Parks and Wildlife and the Department of Water,’ he said.

‘The trail, originally constructed in honour of the late Jim Gordon VC in the 1980s, provides an attractive thoroughfare for visitors wishing to explore the natural environment of Gingin Brook.’
