Have your say on Sanctuary Point pathway
Published on 18 May 2023
We would like to know your thoughts on the final stages of the Sanctuary Point shared user path.
As part of Council’s Pedestrian Access and Mobility Plan, the proposed shared user path connects the communities of St Georges Basin, Basin View and Sanctuary Point.
Mayor Amanda Findley said the path would close the loop and provide one continuous pathway for the whole community to enjoy.
“The proposed path will provide a continuous link from the Bay path (Jervis Bay) to Sanctuary Point and St Georges Basin,” Cr Findley said.
“Council undertook previous works on the path, with the final stages closing the shared user path loop for everyone to be able to walk, run and ride along with ease,” she said.
The final stages (5 and 6) of the proposed 2-metre-wide pathway to connect the community involves:
- Almost 500 metres of path and road upgrades along Anson Street and Loralyn Avenue at Sanctuary Point (funded under Stage 5)
- Construction of 1 km path along Walmer Avenue - either near property boundaries or closer to the road (unfunded under Stage 6).
Mayor Findley said Council aimed to identify priorities for pedestrians and cyclist, while continuously improving the network of footpaths and shared user paths in the Shoalhaven.
Please provide your input by completing the online survey by Sunday, 11 June 2023.
