Reid welcomes Pozieres Ave footpath
Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid has welcomed the construction of a footpath in Pozieres Ave in Umina.
Dr Reid said that a commitment was made at the 2022 federal election to secure funding to construct the footpath.
He said the amount secured from the Commonwealth Government was $425,000.
Dr Reid said: "During the 2022 federal election, I spoke with many people in our community about local infrastructure issues.
"One matter that was raised with me often was the unsafe pedestrian conditions along Pozieres Ave in Umina Beach.
"I made a commitment that I would advocate on behalf of residents and secure Commonwealth funding for a footpath.
"I am pleased to see that the funding that I was able to secure is now being utilised by Central Coast Council to construct a footpath along Pozieres Ave.
"This footpath will improve pedestrian accessibility and allow residents to walk safely to Ocean Beach Rd or Lone Pine Plaza.
"I will continue to be a strong advocate for the Peninsula and for increased infrastructure funding," Dr Reid said.
