Less Stress Bike Route Consultation

Council seeks your input on a proposed bicycle route through your suburb and invites you to a public meeting on Thursday 6 February 2014.

Bicycle Strategy

One of the key components of Council’s Bicycle Strategy is to create a traffic environment that encourages children to cycle to school.

It proposes several routes on quiet local roads that are safer and more attractive to less confident cyclists.

The project this year focuses on the Central Burnside Less Stress Bike Route (previously Super Route).

The Central Burnside route identified in the Strategy is from Hallett Rd through to Fullarton Rd. It is identified in the strategy as using Statenborough St, then Stafford Gr, crossing Portrush Rd at the pedestrian signal north of Alexandra Ave, and then Alexandra Ave.

Proposed Bike Route Options

This leaflet provides details on the three options we have identified for the proposed Less Stress Bike Route, via Alexandra Ave, Watson Ave or Hewitt Ave. We welcome your input and feedback.

Complete Questionnaire

Please complete the survey below to have your say and help us determine an appropriate route. Consultation closes 5 pm Wednesday 12 February 2014.

Attend Public Meeting

You are also invited to attend a public meeting on Thursday 6 February 2014 at 6.30 pm at Council’s Civic Centre to discuss your views and identify a preferred option.

What further information is available?

We realise you may need more detailed information regarding the three potential options identified. For example, how do the Hewitt Ave and Watson Ave routes line up with the route in Norwood that connects to the east? Or what happens on the one-way traffic section of Talbot St?

Further information is available on this website including:

• The consultant’s study of these routes
• More detailed images
• The full Bicycle Strategy
• The questionnaire
