Dianella BMX and Mountain Bike Facility
The City’s endorsed Skate and BMX identified the need to consider dirt mountain bike and BMX opportunities at Dianella Regional open Space. In 2018 and 2020 the City of Stirling engaged the community to gain their views about the proposed location and designs.
Stage one and two opened in late 2021 and included a pump track, skills track and associated infrastructure such as a shelter, drinking fountains and bike racks. In February 2023, Council allocated funding to deliver Stage 3 of the BMX/Mountain Bike facility. This includes a series of beginner, intermediate and advanced jump lines and spectator viewing facilities. Detailed design of the jump lines is currently progressing, with construction anticipated to occur later in 2023.
The concept designs and further project information can be accessed in useful documents.
What is included as part of Stage 3?
Stage 3 includes a series of beginner, intermediate and advanced jump lines, and spectator viewing facilities. Check out the concept design here.
Where will the jumps be located?
The jump lines are located to the east of the current pump track. The indicative location is shown on the site plan here.
What consultation has occurred?
The City has engaged with the Community in both 2018 and 2020 to gain their views about the proposed location and designs. The community identified that having jump lines that catered for a diverse range of abilities was important.
What materials will be used for the jumps?
To complement the other facilities on site, the jump lines will consist of compacted limestone and timber ramps.
Will the pump track and skills trail be available during construction?
The construction of the jump lines will involve heavy machinery and considerable earthworks. To ensure the safety of the contractors and public, the BMX facility will be closed during construction. The City will ensure that we keep facility users, residents and reserve users updated on the proposed program of works ahead of the commencement of construction.
