Council is excited to announce a new pilot program focussing on footpath infrastructure in your neighbourhood called the ‘Neighbourhood Pathways Program – Connecting People with People’.

Each year, Council receives a significant number of requests for new footpaths. To gain a better understanding of the connections that are important to local communities, the Neighbourhood Pathways Program will provide an opportunity for the community to request small-scale footpath related projects they believe will enhance the quality of life in their neighbourhood.

Eligible projects will have a focus on pedestrian movements within your neighbourhood and improving accessibility to connect one another. Improvements may include:

  • Neighbourhood loops
  • Missing footpath links
  • Paths through parklands
  • Paths to equipment and/or embellishments in parks
  • Pram and curb ramps
  • Footpaths to access bus stops
  • Provision of shade trees along existing footpaths
