About the project
We are improving connections for people who walk, wheel and ride across the Glenorchy City Council. The project will link existing cycle paths, upgrade intersections and add clear signs and lighting to make these routes safer and easier to use.
In consultation with Glenorchy City Council, Bicycle Network and Cycling South, we have developed designs for improvements at five key sites.
Timing
Construction is expected to start later in 2026.
