The new shared footpath will provide a safe and accessible connection between Weston CBD, surrounding residences, and Weston Public School, making it easier for students, families, and the community to travel, improving pedestrian and cyclist access in the area.

How will residents be impacted during construction?

During construction, residents and road users may experience:

  • Restricted access for pedestrians and cyclists along East Esplanade
  • Traffic management in place for safety, which may cause minor delays on Station Street and Fourth Street
  • Material stockpiles in the area related to the works
