Lake Tyers State Park - Glasshouse Campground closure

The access road to the Glasshouse Campground in Lake Tyers State Park has been under water for some months, rendering access to the area unsafe.
 
Once the water subsides there will still be time required for the road surface to dry out, before vehicles can use it.
 
Water bollards are in place and signage has been posted. Damage to the environment by bypassing the bollards is causing environmental damage. Campers who ignore the road closure will be subject to enforcement notices from Authorised Officers.
 
The safety of our visitors, staff and contractors is our top priority. We will not hesitate to close an unsafe site or asset if it means protecting the health and well being of visitors, staff and volunteers.
