Launch of the no glass policy for Litchfield National Park (launch occured at Berry Springs), Northern Territory, Australia.
The Parks and Wildlife Commission is committed to ensuring our parks and reserves are family friendly and can be enjoyed by all visitors. We encourage and welcome people to use our parks for recreation, tourism, activities / events and social interactions.
In recent times, there have been incidents of inappropriate and antisocial behaviour at several of our parks. These few individuals effectively ruin the experience for everyone else. To overcome this, the Commission will be working with the NT Police to reduce these occurrences to ensure the safety and enjoyment of our parks for all visitors.
During the Easter long weekend and Anzac Day, the Commission and the NT Police will be conducting more frequent patrols of popular sites to reduce antisocial behaviour and to protect the safety and enjoyment of all park users. Visitors to parks and reserves are asked to consider others while at the park.
In addition, the Commission reminds visitors that glass cannot be taken within 10 metres of the water’s edge, so we encourage visitors to bring alternative containers, if they wish to enjoy a drink whilst sitting in or near the water.
The Commission encourages everyone to visit our parks and have a good time, but we ask that visitors remember that parks are family friendly environments – and we will continue to work hard to ensure that families can safely visit our parks.
