Melbourne Ave footpath work to start soon - Tesch

Footpath upgrades on Melbourne Ave, between Brisbane Ave and Hobart St, Umina, are set to begin shortly, according to Member for Gosford Ms Liesl Tesch.

"Beginning with a community petition in 2016, our community has been crying out for safe active transport infrastructure to improve the hazardous conditions for children walking and riding to school along Melbourne Ave," she said.

"This project is a perfect example of the power of our community working alongside government to improve our community for the better."

Umina Beach Public School P/C vice-president Ms Nellie Feeney said: "This is a great example of communities groups such as Umina Beach Public School P/C and Umina Community Group working together, and this is a great outcome for our community."

Grandparent and community advocate Ms Sally Jope said: "This has been a long time coming and, hopefully, this will make school access so much safer.

"It is not only the school, but the recreation precinct, the beach, the club. These streets get used a lot and it is very unsafe as it is."

Ms Tesch said : "Our beautiful Peninsula is perfect for walking and cycling, and we know how important footpaths are to our local community, connecting our day-to-day lives."
