Moorabool Shire Council welcomed a local State MP to Darley last month, to turn the first sod for a new project.<\/p>\n
Member for Eureka, Michaela Settle, joined Mayor Cr Rod Ward, and Cr Moira Berry in turning the first sod of the new Aqualink activity nodes project on 14 September. <\/p>\n
The nodes will form an integral part of the Aqualink Cycling and Walking Corridor, a proposed 4.5-kilometre path connecting the Lerderderg River and Werribee River corridors for non-car transport when completed. The network will also connect to the Bacchus Marsh Train Station. <\/p>\n
The nodes include exercise equipment, picnic tables and play areas.<\/p>\n
Cr Ward expressed his gratitude to the State Government for helping fund the nodes, and said they would be a fantastic asset for the community. <\/p>\n
\u201cThis is such an important project for Bacchus Marsh, providing passive recreation and transport options for residents and visitors, and the activity nodes, where people can stop and exercise or rest, are a great feature of the corridor,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe sincerely thank the Victorian Government for its $600,000 commitment to the nodes via its Growing Suburbs Fund for this project, which has created a wonderful community asset.\u201d <\/p>\n
