CONSTRUCTION of the multi-million dollar Bendigo Low Line shared walking and cycling path project is officially underway after Member for Bendigo West Maree Edwards, City of Greater Bendigo mayor Cr Andrea Metcalf and CEO Andrew Cooney made a visit to inspect a section of the early works last week.<\/p>\n

The project will eventually complete the 4.4 kilometre missing link in the Bendigo Creek Trail between Golden Square and Lake Weeroona, thanks to a $5 million investment from the State Government and more than $2 million chipped in by the City of Greater Bendigo.<\/p>\n

Once completed, it will link many of Bendigo’s major attractions, including Rosalind Park, the Golden Dragon Museum, Central Deborah Gold Mine and the city centre.<\/p>\n

The new pathway will feature 14 entry and exit points to cater for Bendigo residents \u2013 95,000 of whom live within five kilometres of the Bendigo Creek.<\/p>\n

Apart from concreting, project works will also include lighting, signage, seating, landscaping and the construction of retaining walls and drainage.<\/p>\n

The name Bendigo Low Line reflects the channel section of the Bendigo Creek and takes inspiration from the creative and cultural success of New York’s High Line, which was created on a disused, elevated railway structure.<\/p>\n

Ms Edwards said the start of construction on “this fantastic project” is a significant step towards creating a more connected, inclusive and healthier Bendigo.<\/p>\n

Cr Metcalf agreed that the project is “visionary” and reflects the City’s commitment to creating a healthier, more connected city.<\/p>\n

“It’s about making everyday journeys safer and more enjoyable, while celebrating the natural and cultural heart of Bendigo,” she said.<\/p>\n
