Gympie – Brooloo Road, design active transport crossings
Detailed design is underway for active transport bridge structures and pathway to provide connectivity of the Principal Cycle Network from Gympie's southside into the Gympie CBD and surrounds.
Design activities for the project are funded under the Active Transport Investment Program (ATIP), which delivers infrastructure that supports a safe, direct and connected cycling network.
The project aims to provide stand-alone-structures and connecting pathways for the use of bike riders and pedestrians, across the Mary River and Bruce Highway, just north west of the existing Normanby Bridge.
