Have your say on Bargara Walking Network Plan

Community members are invited to put on their thinking caps along with their shoes to have a say on the Bargara Walking Network Plan.

Bundaberg Regional Council’s Walking Network Plan will help shape improvements to pedestrian activity within the Bargara Central Shopping Centre catchment.

This will be the third location chosen in the Bundaberg Region to be funded through the Queensland Walking Local Government Grants, which has also funded the development of walking network plans for the Friendly Society Private Hospital and Sugarland Plaza catchment areas.

Each catchment encompasses a two kilometre radius around a key site in accordance with the Department of Transport and Main Roads Walking Network Planning Guidance.

Council has engaged Arup to work with the community and key stakeholders to help identify barriers to walking and opportunities for improvement.

Residents can have their say using an interactive online mapping tool, which allows them to zoom in to areas of interest within the catchment and drop a pin to share a view or idea.

Council’s interactive map for the Bargara Walking Network Plan will close on Sunday 10 March.
