Irrigation upgrade at Druids Hall Grounds

Work will start next week to upgrade the irrigation system in the grassed area between Druids Hall and the public toilets

As Witchcliffe continues to grow, the park and facilities are being used more often. To keep the area functioning well, the Shire will be expanding the irrigation area and carrying out some turf remediation. This work is necessary to keep up with the increasingly high demand on the facilities.   

Works schedule
•    Start date: Monday 23 March
•    Estimated completion: Before Easter (Thursday 3 April 2026)
•    Access during works: 
      -    Public toilets will remain open (access via Bussell Highway).
      -    The grassed area between Druids Hall and the toilet block will be closed for safety.
      -    All other areas of Witchcliffe remain open as usual.

These works will help the park stay in good condition and support increasing community use.
