The car park has been redesigned to improve safety and visitor experience. The new design includes accessible parking and for mini buses at the lookout. Parking for large vehicles including coaches will be provided at the Blue Mountains Heritage Centre.

Minor works around the Heritage Centre are planned including signage, planting and pathways.
