A few of us are gathering on Sunday to do a wheelbarrow rubbish run along the track:

- 9.30am
- Russell Street (starting point)

If you’d like to participate, meet at the corner of Russell Street and the rail track. At 9.30, we will start walking along the path from Russell Street to Leader Street, picking up rubbish (glass, plastic, metal, etc) along the way.

Bring some gloves and a bucket or a wheelbarrow for collecting rubbish. Hope to see you there!

The State Government has spent 1.7 million on the Rosewater Loop Project since its commitment prior to the 2022 election.

Just weeks out from the recent State Election, the Hon. Joe Szakacs MP and the Port Adelaide Labour candidate, Cheyne Rich committed an additional 1.5 million to the Rosewater Loop Project - if Labour was re-elected. This is fantastic news and we are grateful for their additional commitment.

Let’s hope stage 2 works begin soon and are not left to be completed a few weeks out from the 2030 election.
