A quick update for path users near Woodlupine Bridge, Forrestfield
If you regularly use the path near Woodlupine Bridge (between Magnolia Way and Aspen Court, Forrestfield), you may have noticed signage and safety barriers that were installed on Wednesday 22 January.
The City has temporarily closed the footpath along the northern side of the brook to allow further checks on the existing wooden bridge, which has begun to deteriorate. This is a precautionary step to make sure the area remains safe for everyone.
What this means for you:
- The path on the southern side of the brook remains open and can be used as an alternative route
- A structural engineering consultant will assess the bridge condition
- We’re hopeful minor maintenance will be enough to reopen the bridge, but it may need to remain closed until replacement works can be scheduled
We know this is a well-used path and appreciate your patience while we work through the best long-term solution.
Updates will be shared as soon as more information is available.
If you have any feedback or questions, please reach out to the City via phone 9257 9999 or email enquiries@kalamunda.wa.gov.au.
