River race access

The 2025 championships have been pencilled in for this same event.

Hopefully, things will be better for spectators’ access by then; it’s all a learning curve as well.

It’s a beautiful part of the river and a pity more people can’t see it.

This part of the river doesn’t come close to the railway so it’s very safe.

I’m still of the mind that this could be very beneficial to the Shire of Toodyay if the road was permanently opened with a controlled level crossing and access along this very scenic part of the river.

It would bring a great deal of tourism to your area.

In the eastern states, the National White Water event brings a lot of people to the area with a certain amount of TV coverage.

I did mention to the organisers to contact your newspaper to keep readers informed but this didn’t happen and it appears to have been overlooked.
