Burnie Park Walking Track Upgrade Completed 🌿🚶‍♂️

As part of Council’s Active Transport Strategy, Council have upgraded the existing asphalt footpath at Burnie Park - widening it to 3 metres to create a safer, more accessible space for everyone to enjoy.

The Active Transport Strategy was made possible thanks to a $200,000 grant from the Tasmanian State Government through the Better Active Transport Program, along with a $50,000 contribution from Council to deliver the strategy document.

With approximately $125,000 remaining after the document strategy was completed, Council were able to reinvest those funds directly back into our community - upgrading the popular walking track at Burnie Park.

And this is just the beginning! Further development and implementation of the Active Transport Strategy is planned as part of Council’s 2026–27 Capital Works Program.

We look forward to seeing our community out walking, running, and enjoying the improved track!
