Road and Track Closures

CANCELLED DUE TO WINDS Helicopter Operations on Zig Zag Track tomorrow

***Cancelled - Winds*** City of Hobart advises that helicopter operations to deliver material to Zig Zag Track are planned for tomorrow morning (Thursday 2 Feb). Closures will be in place as per this map. 

The Old Hotel Site road will be closed from this afternoon Wednesday 1 Feb, with track closures in place from around 7am tomorrow morning. 

Operations should be finished around midday, possibly earlier.

Rocky Wheel'n and Free Wheel'n Tracks (Hobart)

Construction nearing completion with allowances now being made for the surface to settle and dry out. It is critical to ensure no unauthorised access on the track whilst the surface is still soft as this will delay opening. Penalties apply for bypassing barriers and contravening No Access signs. Monitoring and surveillance measures are in place. Expected to open at the end of January 2023.

The Zig Zag Track will be closed for Stage 2 of track restoration works from 23 January until mid-2023. The Pinnacle Track will also be closed intermittently when helicopter operations are active.

Merton Fire Trail (Glenorchy)

Closed due to landslip. Remediation works delayed due to weather. Works to commence early in 2023.

Montrose Fire Trail (Glenorchy)
