Weather permitting, this program will take place from Monday 19 March 2018 to Friday 23 March 2018 during the hours of 5.30am – 8.00am and 11am – 2.00pm.

To ensure the safety of the public while this program is being conducted, access to the National Parks Estate, Bronte Road and the Halifax Bay Wetlands will be closed during these times.  Access to huts on Bronte Road will be permitted outside of planned control times.
