Geocache Description:

This is the 1st in a series of 10 caches along the Eastwood County Road corridor... a real life ghost road!

Sadly the first hide was muggled and this is the replacement cache.

The Eastwood County Road is an unbuilt road proposal stretching from Epping Road at North Ryde to Kissing Point Road at Dundas, via Eastwood. The reservation, wide enough to permit construction of a six-lane highway-standard road, was gazetted in July 1951 as part of the County of Cumberland Planning Scheme but was never constructed.

This section: The reservation starts from Epping Road where it intersects with Whiteside Street. Land was formerly reserved for a grade-separated interchange on the north side of Epping Road but was sold off and developed in 2001.

Other information: Please replace cache exactly as it was found to prevent it from being muggled/vandalised. BYO pen. This site also presents a good opportunity to practise CITO (Cache In Trash Out), so please bring a rubbish bag and help save the environment :)
