Just a message to let you know that Huon are closing the Yarralumla Creek underpass into Equestrian Park this Saturday 1 April for installation of material in the new bridge pylon. The underpass will be closed from 7:30 on Saturday until they finish work usually at 1pm.
Because the Pegasus Endurance Ride is starting from Equestrian Park on Saturday Huon will be posting two traffic management officers (lollypop men) on the Cotter Road and they will stop any traffic to allow horse riders to cross the Cotter Road from the Curtin side into the front gate of EP. The attached map is very busy but it indicates that riders should use the existing horse track along the Curtin verge to get to the crossing point whether you are coming from Curtin or Illoura or further south and signal that you wish to cross. The route will be sign posted. They will give you plenty of room between the vehicles. Huon have decided to maintain this facility until 4pm although they would usually shut up shop at 1pm.
There will be no road work on Sunday and the underpass has been greatly tidied up.
Perase pass this info on to anyone you know who is likely to ride to Equestrian Park for any reason on Saturday.
