Role Title: Research Intern: Wait-Jen Trail Renewal Plan
Organisation: Shire of Wagin
Internship Period: Winter (June - July)
Location: Wagin
The 10.5km Wait-Jen Trail was constructed in 2003 within Parkeyrerring Nature Reserve, Wagin. The trail was funded through the State Government but overtime has become disused and would require significant renewal works. The site is important for the Aboriginal community in the region. This project involves preparing a Plan for potential renewal of the Wait-Jen Trail. The project would involve preparing an estimate of the cost of remedial works and ongoing maintenance costs, identification of funding options and a cost benefit analysis of proceeding. It would also require engagement with the community, including local Aboriginal leaders.
The Shire of Wagin is a focussed Local Government providing progressive and innovative leadership that builds a sustainable future while supporting a vibrant, healthy and caring community.
