THE future development of a path in the \u201cgreen wedge\u201d between Point Lonsdale and Ocean Grove will be the focus of a public forum next month.<\/p>\n
Organised by the Ocean Grove Community Association and Point Lonsdale Civic Association, along with supporting partners, the Southern Bellarine Coastal Forum aims to discuss the opportunities and risks of a bicycle and footpath link \u2013 nominally called the Southern Bellarine Coastal Trail \u2013 between the two townships, while protecting the natural environment of the area.<\/p>\n
The full-day forum will include presentations from guest speakers on a range of topics, which will then be followed by a participatory workshop of short focus sessions run in order to develop a vision statement and list of opportunities and risks.<\/p>\n
The forum will provide information on the opportunities and obstacles to creating the final link in the Bellarine Peninsula Coastal Trail.<\/p>\n
Following the forum, the Ocean Grove Community Association will produce a summary document summarising the key issues, stating the draft Vision Statement, listing the opportunities and risks, and outlining the next steps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
