The Sherwood Arboretum will undergo upgrades this month particularly at the area along the Brisbane River.
Funds amounting to $95,000 have been set aside for the upgrades that includes repairs to the riverside boardwalk and bridge. Some of the works include:
Decking board replacement
Timber balustrades reprinting
Handrails reprinting
The decommissioned maintenance-only bridge will be removed whilst trees will be pruned for easier access to the bridge and boardwalk.
Locals are warned of temporary closures within the area this month due to the upgrades. The good news is that it won’t be too long before residents can enjoy the arboretum once again.
The area is perfect for gatherings or for solitary walks as it is surrounded by trees. There are gazebos where one can sit and just take in the peace and quiet. There are also kids’ playgrounds in the area.
