School Crossing at St Edmunds

Better connections: Narrabundah & Jerrabomberra Wetlands
Old Narrabundah Community Council (ONCC) wrote to the ACT Government, seeking a walking and cycling path network between Narrabundah wetlands, old Narrabundah and Jerrabomberra wetlands. This would improve the active transport options for our residents and provide better connectivity between adjoining suburbs and our recreational facilities.
We received a response to our letter from the Minister for Transport & City Services, Chris Steel, that the ACT Government will commence an assessment of the suitability of future pathway connections.
In addition, we were advised that the ACT Government is considering a future separated cycling path aong the northern side of Canberra Ave that would connect the City to Queanbeyan from Bowen Drive through Wentworth Ave and along Canberra Ave.
The ONCC will keep residents informed as these assessments progress.
A copy of our original letter and the Minister’s reply are attached.
