A bright beginning on Brighton Ave
Soon you’ll be able to walk to Toronto from Carey Bay in safety along a new stretch of concreted footpath along Brighton Ave from Ambrose St to Jarrett St, thanks to a Community Building Partnership grant and the generosity of LMCC.
The original concept for the grant was to trial an alternative surface of crushed gravel for areas that were not able to have concrete, however LMCC preferred to cover the additional cost of a concrete path. Stage1 will be in place this financial year and Stage 2 completed soon after.
Linking Kilaben Bay to Rathmines- a pipe dream or a bridge to reality
A TASNG team recently chatted with a local landholder and LMCC Officer to scope the idea of a bike-walking trail linking Kilaben Bay to Rathmines. The route would require the acquisition of some environmentally sensitive foreshore land, the construction of two bridges, collaboration with Hunter Water and a lot of community support and but the benefits would be huge. A pedestrian friendly link joining Rathmines and Kilaben Bay-Toronto that would enable off road recreational activities, boost the tourist potential of the area and support the non car owning community to enjoy all that the western Lake Mac foreshore suburbs have to offer.
