Ranger Rants

CLOSED MEANS CLOSED

Dear runners and walkers, 

In case you hadn't heard, the Zig Zag Track is closed as of today for some sexy new trackworks. Meaning, it's off limits to all users. Please respect the signs, the workers, the Park and your fellow users, who all want it re-opened as soon as possible. Using it before it's open risks causing damage and delays, not to mention injury to users and workers.

We're sorry to report that 2 runners have already ignored the signs and the workers telling them the track is closed. We're trying to change the culture of track use and management, for the good of kunanyi / Mount Wellington, the track network and the huge community of track users. 

It's a construction site. Closed means closed. We're taking this seriously and there will be more monitoring including stings and on-the-spot fines starting at $271.50.

Check the City of Hobart or Wellington Park Facebook pages and websites for updates and info.
