Neighbourhood Pathways Program
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
