■ Manningham Council is hosting an information session on the proposed path along Taroona Ave between Heidelberg-Warrandyte Rd and Everard Drive. The path will form part of Manningham Council’s Main Yarra Trail Extension Project to facilitate the safe movement of pedestrians and cyclists through the local area in all weather conditions. The Taroona Avenue Path Community Information Session will provide community members an opportunity to meet with Council officers and discuss possible solutions for completing this missing section of the Main Yarra Trail along Taroona Avenue, said a Council representative. The event will be held from
● Cr Michelle Kleinert, Manningham Mayor
5pm-7pm on Wednesday, October 26, at the Warrandyte Community Hall, 8 Taroona Avenue, Warrandyte. Manningham Council is extending the Main Yarra Trail to provide a seamless connection from Warrandyte to the CBD. “The trail will benefit both pedestrians and cyclists by joining the MainYarra Trail, Mullum Mullum Trail and other Trails together,” said a Council statement. “The extension of the trail aims to deliver increased participation in physical activities such as walking and riding to school, shops and work. “Linking the CBD to Warrandyte will also be a major drawcard for recreational cyclists
and tourists. The plan for this trail has evolved over 20 years and the remaining sections will be built in stages. Manningham Mayor, Cr Michelle Kleinert, said cyclists and pedestrians currently travel along informal and disconnected footpaths and arterial roads, which poses a safety risk. “The Main Yarra Trail extension will provide a safe and connected path for cyclist and pedestrians to enjoy. “The Warrandyte Township is a major tourism and recreation destination on the Yarra River on the edge of the Green Wedge. This trail extension will make it easier and more enjoyable for recreational cyclists and locals to access .”
