Ettalong considered for accessible walk

The Ettalong Beach foreshore may be one possible location for a walking track following the relocation of funds from a similar project.

A $15,000 community development grant, allocated to the creation of an accessible walking track on Kincumba Mountain, was recently deemed "insufficient" for the project by Gosford Council's disability access committee at its meeting of May 3.

The committee resolved that alternatives that create an accessible bushwalk with the available funds should be sought.

Some suggestions from the committee included a walk at Ettalong Beach foreshore, a walk upgrade at Rumbalara, a rainforest walk at Illya Ave or a mangrove boardwalk at West Gosford.

Further information regarding appropriate projects and their costing will now be sought and brought back to the committee for its consideration.
