Walking and Cycling

The Cumberland Walking and Cycling Strategy provides a strategic framework to support walking and cycling as part of an integrated transport network. It also supports a place-based approach in making it easier to access public spaces, community facilities and local centres.

The Cumberland Walking and Cycling Strategy provides a strategic framework to support walking and cycling (also known as active transport) as part of an integrated transport network. It also supports a place-based approach in making it easier to access public spaces, community facilities and local centres.

The vision is that Cumberland has a high quality, well-connected walking and cycling network that will enable and encourage residents and visitors to choose walking and cycling to access jobs, services and recreation.

A range of strategic directions and actions are identified to deliver on the vision for walking and cycling in Cumberland:

  1. A city supported by infrastructure and an integrated network.
  2. A city that is inclusive and encourages healthy behaviour.
  3. A city that supports emerging trends and business.

Council adopted the Cumberland Walking and Cycling Strategy at its Ordinary Meeting held on 1 May 2024.
