1) The Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority has advised that the problem started to become evident about March 2004. Since March 2004 there was an increasing need for maintenance for tightening of decking screws and it was concluded in January 2006 that it was more effective to replace the jarrah decking supports with a more durable steel system. The work was documented and then tendered in June 2006. 2) The repair contract sum is $110935.00 including GST. This amount is about 1.4% per annum and is not considered excessive when the average cost of maintenance would be expected to be about 2% per annum. 3) The life of the repairs is indefinite given regular maintenance. 4) The repairs consist of replacement of timber bearers under the jarrah decking with steel. The bearers are fixed to the top of the steel plate structure that forms the bridge. 5) The walkway was closed 4 - 26 September 2006 and then reopened for the Wildflower Festival. Following this it will be closed from 3 October 2006 for about three and a half weeks for completion of the work. 6) Yes.
