Draft Concept Plan for Tidal River Depot Site Redevelopment

The draft is available for review. The period for consultation has now closed.

Parks Victoria has commenced $3.4 million construction works to rebuild a new works depot on a site adjacent to the existing water treatment plant. As a result, the former depot site will be decontaminated and rehabilitated, creating space for the relocation of roofed accommodation, visitor facilities and open spaces.

A draft concept plan has been prepared to create a new cabin accommodation precinct once the existing works depot is relocated. The draft concept plan proposes:

• Removal of 10 camp sites and 8 motor huts from an Aboriginal Midden Area and the site restored as a protected area
• Ten powered drive through campsites suitable for larger vans, located on the former Lorikeet Flats site
• Eight motor huts and a central camp kitchen for each cluster of four huts
• New toilet facility to cater for motor huts and camp sites
• Five individual Lorikeet Flats to replace the existing block facility
