🚶 A section of the Queenscliff to Point Lonsdale walking track is getting an upgrade! Between the Point Lonsdale Pier to Rip View car park, the existing wire fencing will be replaced with timber fencing to improve safety, while keeping the track in line with its beautiful coastal setting.

🚧 The works are scheduled to begin on Tuesday 1 September until Friday 4 September. To ensure public safety, the walking track will be closed during this time with alternative access along Point Lonsdale Road. Please keep in mind that the schedule may shift at short notice if the weather doesn’t cooperate.

🤝 Council thanks you for your patience while we make these improvements to our coastline.

🌿 The Climate Emergency Response Plan (CERP) is about to undergo a 5-year review.

🤝 The review will recognise the significant progress made since the plan was introduced, including the integration of climate action across Council’s policies, operations and decision-making, as well as QCAN’s important contribution to developing and advancing the original plan.

🗣 To support this process, Council has engaged Nation Partners to assist with community engagement activities. The review will seek community feedback on key issues such as climate adaptation, resilience, emissions reduction and collaborative action, while clarifying what Council can influence, what reporting pillars have been established, and what lies outside Council's control.

👉 As part of the community engagement process, Nation Partners is facilitating two roundtable sessions in October. If you would like to be part of helping shape a refreshed Climate Strategy, follow this link to submit your EOI - boq.news/CERP-5-year-review

⚠️Agriculture Victoria have today advised Council that a crested tern has tested positive for H5N1 (also known as Bird Flu) in Point Lonsdale.

🦅 If you see sick or dead birds or wildlife:
- avoid contact
- record the exact location and what you observed
- report it online or call 1800 675 888

🐦We know people care deeply about wildlife and want to help when they see an animal in distress. Injured wildlife may still need rescue and care, but if birds or wildlife appear sick, or dead, avoid contact and report it so trained responders can safely assess the situation.

👉Please remain alert whilst we continue to monitor this situation with Agriculture Victoria.
