Hi Ben,
I doubt your idea was rejected as such. All options are in play but the favoured option thus far is giving the ramp a scrape (bobcat or the like) so that is not convex with a smoother straighter descent. Then covering the surface with gravel. Possibly a diversion for seepage after r--n (dare I utter the word).
Simple thing are never simple. Blacktown Council has jurisdiction at the top of the ramp and Parramatta Council has jurisdiction at the bottom being the actual catchment zone. Parramatta owns the concrete walls and would more than likely not allow drilling and Dynabolts. Heck, we can't create lines on the grass for designating pilot areas. All part of the rules of use.
