The State Labor Government has approved a rollercoaster-style luge in Arthurs Seat State Park.
That’s right. A rollercoaster. In OUR State Park. But this fight ain’t over.
Since the Government’s decision, Save Our Seat has been overwhelmed by a surge of support from across the community. Long-time residents. Local businesses. Community groups. Visitors who love the Peninsula.
Like you, these people are shocked that a commercial rollercoaster could be approved in one of our most treasured natural places. This is no longer just a planning dispute.
This is a battle for the soul of the Mornington Peninsula.
If a rollercoaster can be built in a State Park, then EVERY green space is at risk.
Planning approval may have been granted, but the luge developers – the Arthurs Seat
Eagle - do not have the social licence to proceed.
If The Eagle refuses to listen to the community, they risk destroying their own reputation and the luge will become a lasting symbol of controversy and division.
There’s still time for The Eagle to do what’s best for Arthurs Seat.. #losetheluge
This proposed expansion will urbanise Arthurs Seat beyond what is appropriate in a STATE PARK.
Our Mission
SoS is committed to providing clear, accurate, and accessible information to the wider community so people can make up their own minds about the merits or otherwise of the proposed Arthurs Seat Eagle development. As well as providing information, we are committed to transparency and believe it is important to state clearly that, as a group, we are opposed to the upgrades proposed by the developer.
