Lake Parramatta Reserve || Weekend || Telugu friends

Lake Parramatta is actually a man-made reservoir, created with the construction of this dam here in 1856. Until 1909 the lake supplied water to homes in the area. In 1909 the dam was decommissioned and the area was dedicated as public recreational land and in 2012 it was proclaimed as a Wildlife Refuge in recognition of the diversity of wildlife and threatened species in the reserve.
James Pye had the dam built in 1855 with a state of the art, convex construction. The dam was raised twice and large sand filters were built along Bourke Street; providing safe drinking water until 1909. From the 1920s an uncontrolled parkland resulted in significant loss of trees and water quality; so in 1960 the reserve was declared a Fauna Sanctuary. Bush regeneration programs have brought back the bushland and water quality. Lake Parramatta is an ever improving natural bushland and the lake is swimmable again.
Lake Parramatta provides Lifeguard Supervision during peak swimming periods.
Swimmers are encouraged to swim in the designated swimming area when Lifeguards are present during Lifeguard Patrols.
