We have removed the log that was jammed vertically under the footbridge so now the vegetation is not getting caught around it. Creek level is slightly lower, no upstream drains are running. We have been informed that works will be occurring on the path entrance (from Scarborough Drive), these works probably will be quite destructive, will be keeping a close eye on the works being carried out.
