Harvey River Diversion

Show Map

The Harvey River Diversion was built in the 1930s and was instigated due to the problem of flooding that took place every winter in the area. A channel was dug from Harvey to the sea at Myalup, it was extremely labour intensive and took several years to complete.

A park has been set up at the Baker Street section of the Diverson there is a commemorative plaque to honour the men who dug the Diverson.

Picnic tables and wood barbecues are in the park.
