| Lifestyle and Recreation |
2.2 - We have access to attractive parks and natural areas that encourage and support a safe healthy lifestyle |
| Healthy Environment |
3.1 - We value the health of our beaches, foreshores and waterways as natural habitats and for our enjoyment |
Why is this a major project
The Narrabeen Lagoon Trail has opened, providing an iconic multi-use trail around the foreshores that allows safe and sustainable access for pedestrians and cyclists of all abilities along an 8.6 kilometre circuit. Its award winning environmentally sensitive design also protects the valuable endangered species in and around the lagoon. Click to read more about the objectives for this project.
Narrabeen Lagoon is the largest coastal lagoon in Sydney. It is home to endangered plant and animal species including migratory birds some from as far away as Russia and Japan. Much of the lagoon catchment is in a natural condition and is a place we love to come to relax, enjoy the scenery and have fun on the water.
The first completed section runs between Deep and Middle Creek. It provides an extensive boardwalk over environmentally sensitive sections of the foreshore and a bridge spanning Deep Creek. The boardwalk won the prestigious NSW Minister for Planning and Infrastructure’s Sydney Greenspace Award. The second stage was completed in 2012 and provided improvements to Middle Creek Reserve. It boasts a safer entry from Wakehurst Parkway, a new watercraft launch bay, dedicated car and trailer parking spaces, new barbeques, signage, shelters, picnic facilities and improved access for the disabled. The final section, known as 2B, was completed in February 2015 and runs adjacent to the Sydney Academy of Sport and Recreation and the Cromer Golf Club. It includes two steel bridges over Middle Creek and Deep Creek.
Construction of a new relocated boat shed for the Sydney Academy of Sport still needs to be completed (Stage 2C) and is expected to be fully completed in September 2015. This landmark project is a partnership between the NSW and Federal governments, Cromer Golf Club, Sydney Academy of Sport and Recreation and Pittwater Council.
