Safe, connected and comfortable riding networks for regional Western Australia
The communities of the Avon Central Coast, Gascoyne, Great Southern and Kalgoorlie are on track for an improved bike riding future with the release of 2050 cycling strategies for each region.
The four long-term strategies set out a blueprint to improve walking, wheeling and riding opportunities in and between regional centres for people of all ages and abilities.
Each identifies potential bike networks to improve safety and connectivity for residents and showcase some of our State’s best natural assets and local attractions to visitors and tourists.
Development of these aspirational strategies was a collaborative effort, with 23 local governments engaged, as well as input from the local community. Joining the six regional strategies already published, this entire suite will help guide future investment in active transport infrastructure and enable ongoing and improved tourism, commuting and leisure opportunities.
The final strategy in development is the Kimberley 2050 Cycling Strategy, which is expected to be released in early 2025.
