Area: 
Manly Dam
Status: 
Red/Closed

Hi Mountain Bikers,

We are receiving a lot of calls enquiring about the track status. We have just completed an inspection of the track, and unfortunately while some sections have dried out well, other sections remain well and truly waterlogged. As such the track will remain closed at this stage. We will re-inspect on Thursday and advise accordingly. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Also, Council is seeking comment on the Draft Mountain Biking in Warringah: Research and Directions paper. The document considers the demand for mountain bike facilities in Warringah and discusses potential opportunities to increase provision. It encompasses all forms of off-road cycling, such as cross country, downhill, dirt jumping and free riding. The document can be viewed at http://www.warringah.nsw.gov.au/comment/comment.... as well as at Council's Civic Centre at Dee Why and each of Council's libraries. Submissions are to be addressed to the General Manager by COB Thursday 15 December and can be emailed to [email protected] or posted to the Civic Centre, 725 Pittwater Road Dee Why 2099.

Kind regards,
Manly Dam Rangers

No word yet. With the wind and some sun things have definitely dried out a lot up here. I would say that the rangers are giving it all the time they can being during the week and, if there is no more rain, I would be surprised if they didn't send out a message saying it was open tomorrow.
