New Growth for Park

12 March 2020

Six new cabins rolled into Batlow Caravan Park this week, providing options for temporary accommodation for locals impacted by the bushfire and kickstarting Batlow’s long term economic recovery.

Snowy Valleys Council made the decision to purchase the additional six cabins for the Batlow Caravan Park in January as a direct response to the bushfire crisis with the intent to make them available as a temporary accommodation solution for local residents who were affected by the fires as quickly as possible.

The cabins were purchased in January, prefabricated offsite and delivered this week with installation works now underway.

The six new cabins are in addition to the $723,000 upgrade to the Batlow Caravan Park that has included the removal of dilapidated buildings, installation of new buildings including office, amenities and camp kitchen, improvements to roads and fencing and electrical upgrades.

The work is being fast tracked at the Caravan Park, with the aim of opening prior to Easter.
