  • The speed limit is 30 km/h

  • Park only on road edges or in marked parking areas
  • Leave pets and firearms at home
  • Take out all rubbish with you
  • All wildlife is protected including snakes, spiders and lizards

  • Ride skateboards, use rollerblades or bicycles in the Connections / Terrace Garden
