Jacquie Petrusma,Minister for Parks
The Tasmanian Government has been working with the Arthur-Pieman Conservation Area Management Committee and other key stakeholders to identify priority initiatives for off-road vehicle use within the area and reserves across the West Coast.
A Request for Tender for the development of a West Coast Off Road Vehicle Strategy has now been released by the Tasmania Parks and Wildlife Service (PWS).
The Strategy will inform future investment of the our $10 million commitment to supporting sustainable recreational off-road vehicle opportunities in the APCA and more widely on the West Coast.
It will also inform future investment in track management and campsites as well as protecting natural and cultural values on the West Coast.
We recognise the importance of recreational off-road vehicle access to the Tasmanian community and will continue to work to develop sustainable opportunities on the West Coast whilst protecting our Tasmanian Aboriginal heritage.
