The toilets located at Murwillumbah Railway Station are currently closed for refurbishment.

Please use the toilets located across the road in Buckley Park on Prospero Street or in Budd Park on Alma Street.

We’re urging the community to be cautious when out and about as snakes are very active at this time of year.

If you encounter a snake in a public place, give it space to escape! There is additional emergency information that will assist with snake bites.

At all times, Rail Trail users should:

• Stay on the Rail Trail. Do not enter nearby bushland.
• Be aware and keep an eye out for snakes.
• Do not try to touch or move them. (Most snake bites occur when people try to handle or interact with snakes).
• Leave snakes alone, and they are likely to get out of your way if you give them the opportunity.

Knowing basic snake bite first aid and having the right supplies can make all the difference. If you need first aid or treatment for snake bite, call 000 immediately.
