Final Geraldton 2050 Cycling Strategy Department of Transport GERALDTON 2050 CYCLING STRATEGY 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cities and towns with high levels of cycling enjoy a range of economic, environmental and social benefits. Not only is cycling proven to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality, it also helps to create more vibrant and welcoming communities. Cycling can facilitate new forms of industry (such as cycle-tourism) and more generally, it enables people to live happier, healthier and more active lives. Fundamentally, increasing cycling mode share is about improving quality of life – something that is critical for attracting and retaining people in regional areas. The key to increasing cycling mode share is In developing this strategy, extensive consultation providing infrastructure which is not only safe has been undertaken with key stakeholders and and convenient, but also competitive against the local community. The consultation has helped other modes of transport. To achieve this, cycling to refine the overarching aims and objectives of needs to be prioritised ahead of other modes in the strategy, as well as clarify the community’s appropriate locations and integrated with adjoining expectations in terms of where key routes are land use. If we are serious about reducing car most needed and the requirements of different dependency and helping people make better user groups. transport choices in Geraldton, these priorities There are a number of opportunities to create need to be reflected in the way our communities world-class facilities in Geraldton.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Guiding principles The “8-80” design philosophy is about This strategy will help achieve the City of Greater creating people-orientated towns and Geraldton’s vision of creating a prosperous, cities. It is based on the notion that, if you diverse, vibrant and sustainable community, as design a cycle path for example which outlined in the 2017–2027 Community Strategic caters for the needs of an 8 or an 80 year Plan. old, it is likely to be suitable for everyone. The aim of this strategy is to create a safe, direct, comfortable and integrated cycling network. The Connected: Like a road network, all cycling routes proposed network, which connects people to should connect to something at each end (whether activity centres and key attractions, has been that be a destination, or another cycling route). developed to facilitate cycling for transport, Widespread: The network should be recreation and tourism purposes. Cycling comprehensive enough for people to safely disciplines that are dependent on purpose-built assume they can get to their destination without facilities (such as BMX parks, downhill mountain encountering hostile traffic conditions. When bike trails and velodromes for track cycling) cycling networks reach a certain level of density typically perform non-transport related functions, it enables families to live comfortably without a and as such are not considered within this second car. strategy. Legible: The cycling network needs to be both The networks proposed in this strategy have been intuitive and direct. To achieve this, it makes sense developed based on the following principles: to locate major cycling routes parallel to natural Safe: Geraldton’s 2050 cycling network should land forms such as rivers and coastlines or within be built to a standard which reflects the “8 to 80” major road and rail corridors. Coherent way-finding design philosophy. People of all ages should be initiatives are also important in ensuring legibility. able to cycle safely and confidently to the places Aspirational: Given the long-term nature of this they need and want to go to. Unprotected cycling strategy, several ambitious ideas have been put facilities located on busy roads are not considered forward to help position Greater Geraldton as a suitable for vulnerable road users, and will not safe, pleasant and enjoyable region for cycling. encourage more people to cycle, more often. Achievable: For the most part, the proposals put forward in this strategy adopt tried-and-tested planning principals. The case studies chosen provide local and interstate examples of similar Safe Connected projects undertaken in recent years.

  • Please Read Before Viewing
    Please Read Before Viewing The following document is the full draft version of the Dongara-Geraldton-Northampton Corridor Alignment Selection Report, written for the purpose of identifying a preferred investigation corridor for further planning activities, including community consultation. The report has not been altered in any way since its provision to the Minister for Transport in September 2020, and no sections of it have been omitted in this presentation. Alignment Selection work is normally assessed through desktop assessments, which provide a reasonable understanding of the constraints, issues and opportunities. The desktop work is used to progress stakeholder discussions to test the validity of shortlisted options, leading to landholder and community input. This community and landholder input is a critical step in the process to fill a number of gaps with regard to constraints/issues and assessment of the options. Only after consultation has been incorporated into the planning process can alignment selection be finalised, allowing for more detailed planning (including site investigations). The report was written on the information available at the time of writing. Main Roads’ current engagement activities have already revealed a number of further constraints and opportunities that require further investigation, which may influence the alignment of the final recommended corridor. Feedback on the report can be directed to: [email protected] HP Records Manager No. Date Published Alignment Selection Report – Dongara

The original, rendered stone and mud brick homestead, on the river banks was laid out with two parallel wings forming a courtyard between the two. The wing overlooking the river appears to have housed the main living rooms and bedrooms. In recent times the corrugated iron roofs have been blown off which has contributed to a more rapid deterioration of the wall fabric. It appears that the old homestead continued to provide ancillary accommodation and storage space well into the middle of the 1900’s. The outbuildings are a very substantial complex of four stone structures, with corrugated iron roofs.
