THE City of Kwinana is seeking feedback from the community on its new Bike and Walk Plan, which will be open for public comment until Friday, November 2.
The plan aims to foster place making throughout the City as well as improving the health and wellbeing of residents by encouraging walking or cycling as a preferred mode of transport for local trips.
Mayor Carol Adams said the purpose of the Bike and Walk Plan was to identify a safe network of cycle routes and walking paths that were convenient for people of all ages and abilities to ride or walk to local destinations such as schools, shops, parks, bushland, bus stops and train stations.
“The plan promotes communities where cycling and walking are the preferred choices for short trips and everyone has the opportunity to choose a healthy lifestyle,” she said.
