Cycling and Walking Strategy for the Cairns Region
Monday, 20 July 2009 19:35

The Council is updating its Cycling and Walking Strategy for the whole region and I encourage interested residents to have their input.

I am pleased that the Council is supporting a consultation process which will look at community needs for off-road pathways and on-road bikeways. Info gathered will be used to develop a 5-year Action Plan with short term priorities as well as longer term hopes.

To help shape your feedback there is a Community Survey for interested persons and groups to complete. I know that Cairns Bicycle Users Group activist, Lenore Evans, has been circulating the survey form to her networks and encouraging as many people as possible to have their say.

The closing date for submissions is Friday 7 August 2009. Surveys can be returned via post (no stamp required), or emailed to: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
