Walking network input
THE community is being invited to have their say on a more pedestrian-friendly Innisfail through the development of a walking network plan with the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads.
Public consultation towards a new Innisfail Walking Network is open until Sunday, June 9 with people invited to attend one of two information workshops on Thursday, May 30 at the Innisfail Disaster Coordination Centre at 9.30 am-11.30am and 5pm-7pm.
Cassowary Coast development, planning, and environment councillor Jeff Baines said as the town evolved through future planning and the Innisfail CBD Master Plan, alignment to the community’s needs in pedestrian connectivity was vitally important. “This is an opportunity to ensure our walking infrastructure is accessible and safe, and effectively connects our community with their destinations across short and long trips, on foot and with mobility aids,” he said. “The Innisfail walking network aims to plan for walking routes in the local area so that when funding becomes available, we know where to spend our money first to support community needs.”
