What's proposed?
Council is proposing to replace the existing unsealed path through Shadrack Shaw Reserve in Concord with a new 3.5m wide shared path connecting Kingston Avenue and Nashs Lane. New kerb ramps will be on Kingston Avenue and Nashs Lane and new lighting along the path is also proposed.
The proposed alignment of the new path has been designed to reduce impacts to the natural mangrove vegetation and established trees in Shadrack Shaw Reserve. Any turf and small vegetation that may be disturbed to build this segment will be reinstated, and some additional planning may be done where possible.
This section of shared path will connect with the existing foreshore route through Majors Bay Reserve (via Kingston Avenue and Deakin Street) and provide a more convenient route for people walking and riding bikes between Mortlake and Majors Bay Reserve.
