Yellagonga Regional Park (YRP) is home to a variety of native bird species. The installation of a Bird Viewing Structure will provide the community with safe facilities to birdwatch while ensuring plant and animal life within the park remains protected from unauthorised access.
Lake Joondalup Park was identified as the most feasible site for the development of a bird viewing structure due to the ease of accessibility, lower environmental impacts, desirable views and popularity with bird watching enthusiasts.
Currently, the project is in the procurement stage, with the City finalising a contractor for the construction of the Bird Viewing Structure. The City’s term contractors will be undertaking the footpath construction works.
Location
349 Scenic Drive, Wanneroo.
