Hope for a pathway

On my journeys throughout the world, I have been entranced by the many walkways in major cities that enable people to walk, run or meander along well-paved routes, admiring the water views, and the freshness of the air around oneself.

West Bank, Brisbane comes to mind - Vancouver Island, Paris, Copenhagen to name just a few - even the nearly finished cycle-walkway from Gosford to Woy Woy.

In my particular area, we have the chance to construct a similar walkway from Hardy's Bay to Wagstaffe - something for mothers with prams, elderly people and cyclists to use in safety and pleasure.

It should not be a rough bush track nearly impassable in wet weather and a known accident-prone area for the not-so-agile.

I hope that a pathway is in the pipeline for future planning of our Council, and I am sure that it would be welcomed by visitors and residents alike.
