It is proposed to carry out essential vegetation removal in the central area of The Ward River Valley Park in the coming weeks. This removal work is necessary in order to gain appropriate access to the Ushers Lake area of the Park to facilitate conservation and repair works in the coming months to the sensitive architectural features associated with the Ushers Lake area and its environs.

The vegetation removal is initially required in order to install an access route that will facilitate the protection and conservation of these sensitive architectural features. These newly cleared areas will eventually provide future access routes as part of the overall Masterplan for The Ward River Valley Park.

There are two areas in which  immediate vegetation removal works are required, and both are shown on the associated map below. It is planned to commence on site  week commencing 22nd February 2021.
