Dogs off leash on BHRSP

The new Box Hill to Ringwood path is proving very popular with both cyclists and walkers since it opened almost a year ago. However, one issue of concern has emerged –  people allowing dogs to wander off lead on the path. We think this is a safety issue as the high quality path means cyclists are likely to be riding fairly fast. Unrestrained dogs pose a safety risk.

We have asked VicRoads and Whitehorse Council to erect signage requiring dogs to be on lead at all times.  Stay tuned!
