The City of Swan is about to commence works on the Bells Lookout project. The City listened to your feedback and ideas on the concept plan for a new lookout, to be built on the former site of the derelict Brigadoon sales office. This occurred in 2023, with updates to the project in 2024.

The proposed design includes a new and improved viewing platform, space for a food and beverage van, landscaping and parking.

The State Government has provided over $800,000 to the project.

The old sales office building, which was unable to be repurposed for community use, was demolished.

Works will begin 11th August to December 2025.

Please view the new concept plan here or download on the right hand side of this page.

Feedback reviewed

All feedback was reviewed and taken into consideration when designing the final concept. We have made the following changes as a result

  • Created a a more natural aesthetic by reducing the extent of concrete paths and slightly reducing the size of the undercover structure to maintain the natural environment
  • Added additional parking bays within the site
  • Added more trees and increased the area of garden beds

The City is also investigating additional parking opportunities and road safety improvement in the vicinity as a potential future project.

Construction is due to commence within the 24/25 Financial Year.
