WORK ACROSS CAMDEN
POPULAR WALKWAY
COMES BACK TO LIFE
Council was excited to re-open the popular Miss
Llewella Davies Pioneer Walkway at Camden Town
Farm recently, following last year’s damaging
昀氀oods.
Council repaired and replaced parts of the pathway
surface, reconstructed fences; removed 昀氀ood debris;
and replaced lost and damaged signage.
We look forward to seeing you enjoy the di昀昀erent
loops again!

BRIDGES UPDATE
Last year’s 昀氀oods have signi昀椀cantly impacted a number of
Camden’s bridges.
We know these assets are vital in keeping our community
moving in, out and around the Camden area smoothly, so
we have been working to investigate the scale of damage,
undertake repair works and reopen them as soon as
possible.
LITTLE SANDY BRIDGE
Damage to the riverbank on the Elderslie side of Little Sandy
Bridge worsened with each 昀氀ooding event and Council has
been working with specialist consultants to investigate
and design suitable repair options, including possible
improvements.
At time of writing (September 2023), Council has completed
concept design options for the recti昀椀cation of the damage
to Little Sandy Bridge. A peer review of the options is being
undertaken before detail design commences.
Further updates on timing will be provided once detailed
design commences.
COWPASTURE BRIDGE
The pedestrian rail on Cowpasture Bridge was signi昀椀cantly
damaged in the 昀氀oods by displaced trees traveling down the
river.
The damaged pedestrian rail was replaced last month, with
no interruption to pedestrian or vehicle access.
