HELP US FIND THE RIGHT PATH TO IMPROVE TULLY’S WALKING NETWORK

We want to know how we can make walking in the Tully area more accessible, safe and an overall improved experience to connect people to where they need to go. Walking the kids to school and walking or riding to work or the shops, is one of the most effective ways to combine regular exercise with your everyday routine. More people will walk when everyday destinations are connected by comfortable, direct, safe and accessible routes.

To encourage walking as a more desirable option and identify future opportunities around Tully, Council and The Department of Main Roads (TMR) are developing a draft Walking Network Plan. Following the consultation period, Council will collate feedback and conduct a community workshop for the community to hear results and provide additional feedback on the Draft Walking Network Plan.

We are asking the community to share their feedback in an online survey and utilise our online interactive mapping tool to identify:

  • points of interest you currently walk to and the routes you regularly use.
  • areas of concern which impact your current routes (safety, poor quality paths, accessibility, no connections etc.); and 
  • map the routes you would like to be able to use in the future.

If you use a skateboard or bicycle, run with a pram, use a wheelchair, motorised scooter or any other transport methods we haven't specifically named - we'd love to hear from you too.
