Rider tips

The City of Kwinana says this Thomas Road site will close and move to the Kwinana Motorplex; no timeline has been set. Check before you go. In the meantime, the area received $197,596 in WA Government ORV Grants Program funding in mid-2026 for a northern perimeter barrier, access gate, CCTV and signage — expect possible short-term disruption while work is completed.
