In early October, Star Mail checked out the quality of the roads in the Maroondah Reservoir Park after receiving a report from a Warburton resident, a regular park visitor.
There were a number of serious potholes around the roads in the park.
Following the article, Parks Victoria conducted road safety inspections of parks across the Yarra Valley, which its staff undertake quarterly.
Parks Victoria area chief ranger Conrad Annal said Parks Victoria has commenced repairs of the three Yarra Valley parks.
“Repairs to potholes in Maroondah Reservoir Park’s access roads are expected to be complete in the coming weeks after the storm and flood events of 2022 impacted the popular park’s road surfaces,” he said.
“Badger Weir Picnic Area road works are complete, and repairs are now underway in Donnelly’s Weir carpark.”
