After heavy rain on 28 February 2023, the Forest Walk trail in the park was closed off in March 2023 due to a slope failure. The closure of the trail, as well as another trail, the Earth Trail, in park would remain closed until end July 2026 to stabilise the slope and strengthen the foundation of the elevated Forest Walk trail.
