West Thornlands Active Pathway Link

Council is making it easier for you to walk and cycle safely in Thornlands. In 2022, Council plans to deliver the West Thornlands Active Pathway Link project, a $1.15 million shared pathway upgrade that forms part of Council's vision for improving the city's active transport network as outlined in the Redlands Coast Transport Strategy 2020.

Forming part of the Queensland Government's Principal Cycle Network Plan, the project involves constructing a 1.3km long and 2.5-3m wide shared pathway from Congreve Crescent, north of the Kinross Estate, to the eastern outskirts of the Weippin Street Conservation Area and continuing along South Street toward Wellington Street.

The works also include installing raised priority crossings along South Street at Swallow Street and Lorikeet Drive to reduce vehicle speeds and hooning activity, provide cyclists and pedestrians with a more direct route and improve the safety and visibility of active transport users.

Project works are planned to commence in late 2022.

The project is jointly funded by Council and the Queensland Government and proudly supported by the Queensland Government's Cycle Network Local Government Grants Program.
