Federal Member for Durack, Hon Melissa Price MP, has been fighting for crucial funding to deliver Stage 2 of the Bindoon Mountain Bike Park, building on the success of Stage 1. The expansion will introduce over 10 kilometres of new trails, including advanced double black trails, black and blue trails, and a dedicated walking trail, further cementing the park as a premier outdoor recreation destination.
A Dutton Liberal Government will invest $1.9 million for these upgrades, including a dual access way for emergency services. This commitment will drive economic and social benefits for the region.
Ms Price reaffirmed her commitment to securing the funding required for Stage 2. “The Bindoon Mountain Bike Park has been a tremendous success, drawing in riders, families, and visitors. There remains significant potential for further progress,” Ms Price said. “Stage 2 will build on this momentum by improving facilities and expanding trail options, making the park even more appealing to mountain bikers, hikers, and the wider community.”
The Shire of Chittering has also expressed strong support for securing funding, recognising the positive impact the park has already had on the local community. “Securing funding to complete the Bindoon Mountain Bike Park is crucial for enhancing community recreation, attracting tourists, and boosting the local economy through increased tourism and associated spending. New picnic shelters, an upgraded emergency access road, and additional trails will make the park a safer, more enjoyable destination for all,” said Shire of Chittering’s CEO, Melinda Prinsloo.
The upgrades to the Bindoon Mountain Bike Park will further strengthen its role as a key asset for the entire region. Federal Member for Durack, Melissa Price MP, is a dedicated champion for regional Western Australia, committed to securing the resources needed to grow and strengthen our local communities. Ms Price understands the unique challenges facing regional WA and is determined to ensure we receive the support we deserve.
