Beach access tracks still a danger

Tweed Shire Council is urging residents to be cautious when using beach access tracks and to avoid any which are closed.

Many tracks remain off-limits due to serious safety hazards following ex-Cyclone Alfred. The dangers include significant erosion, hanging branches and fallen trees.

Residents and visitors are asked to respect track closure signs and temporary fencing to ensure safety. Where tracks are closed, use alternative beach access tracks, even if it means a longer walk.

Council crews are working hard to repair the damage and reopen tracks as quickly as possible. Ensuring the safety of both the community and work crews remains Council’s priority while these works take place.
