Draft Bicycle Plan Open for Public Comment
The Greater Hobart Councils of Hobart City, Clarence City, Glenorchy City, Kingborough and Brighton have developed a Greater Hobart Bike Plan, with funding from the Australian Government’s Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts. The objectives of the project are to develop a Plan that will combine existing bike routes and identify new routes to be developed. The project will generate government, corporate and public interest and promote cycling as an integral transport option. This project demonstrates the commitment of the five Greater Hobart Councils to developing a more sustainable transport future for the region. The draft plan was launched on 9 May and is now open for a 6-week public consultation period. Details of the plan are available on Council websites. Click here for a copy of the plan.
