Advice

The Committee unanimously supported the recommendation.

Background

The City’s Cycling Strategy and Action Plan adopted by Council in 2018, identifies a requirement to improve connectivity for bicycle riders across the City’s bicycle network.

This project aims to fill in the missing links on the City’s bike network identified in the Cycling Strategy adopted by Council in November 2018. They will improve the safety of people riding locally, or to work or school. This will serve as strategic connection while improving amenity of the area while supporting overall traffic calming.
