West Trails Strategic Plan 2015 Purpose For Council to consider the Western Metropolitan Region Trails Strategic Plan, as at Attachment 1 to this report. 1. Background The Western Metropolitan Region Trails Strategic Plan (West Trails) is an initiative to improve the connectivity, quality and usage of regional trails in Melbourne’s western region over the next 10 years. The development of West Trails was driven by a steering committee consisting of representatives from the following partners: • Brimbank City Council • Hobsons Bay City Council • Maribyrnong City Council • Melton City Council • Moonee Valley City Council • Wyndham City Council and • Sport and Recreation Victoria. West Trails has been developed with the goal to establish an interconnected and well- used regional trail network that is accessible for all pedestrians and cyclists. The partnership of councils and Sport and Recreation Victoria was formed in February 2013, and chaired by a representative from Hobsons Bay City Council. A consultant was appointed to develop a strategic plan in September 2013. This was funded by contributions from each partner. Regular meetings of the steering group to develop the strategic plan were held from November 2013 to September 2015. 2. Consultation Community consultation was undertaken during the development of the strategic plan to identify with the community and bicycle user groups, the challenges in using the current bicycle network. This consultation has informed many of the recommended actions within West Trails. Consultation within Brimbank was undertaken on 13 September 2014 in Buckingham Reserve, Sunshine West. This location was chosen to capture cyclists using the Kororoit Creek Trail and to casual park users. 3. Analysis West Trails provides a coordinated approach to developing the strategic trail network. In developing the strategic plan, all trails within the six (6) participating municipalities were examined to determine the regional trail network. Meeting No. 397 24 November 2015 Brimbank City Council Ordinary Council Meeting Agenda Officer Reports 29 Report 12.11 – Western Metropolitan Region Trails Strategic Plan - West Trails (continued) The Brimbank Cycling and Walking Strategy 2008 was referenced in the development of West Trails, and informs the Brimbank actions. The Sydenham Trail shared path has been identified as the highest priority of this regional approach. As a regional plan, West Trails specifically provides: • A defined network of regional trails within Western Metropolitan Melbourne, specifically referencing the gaps in provision to address connectivity • A priority list of new trail and improvement projects such as resurfacing • Guidelines for trail branding and supporting facilities to assist and encourage participation, specifically consistent signage and trail information across the region • Opportunities for the various land managers to continue to work together to implement the strategy’s actions • Business case information to support future funding applications • Increased tourism opportunities. 4. Resource Implications All future projects will be considered as part of Council’s annual budget process. A regional approach will provide increased opportunities to attract State Government funding. West Trails aligns with goals of Council’s Cycling and Walking Strategy, which is included in Council’s 10 Year Capital Works Program. 5. Compliance Statement This report has been prepared in accordance with the Council Plan 2013-2017 and Cycling and Walking Strategy 2008. 6. Officer Recommendation That Council endorses the Western Metropolitan Region Trails Strategic Plan - West Trails.

    Integrated Transport Plan Background Paper i Background Paper January 2017 This background paper was compiled by Hobsons Bay City Council. For further information contact Council on 9932 1000 or at www.hobsonsbay.vic.gov.au Council acknowledges all language groups of the Kulin Nation as the traditional owners of these municipal lands. We recognise the first people’s relationship to this land and offer our respect to their elders past and present. Council also acknowledges the legal responsibility to comply with the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006 and the Equal Opportunity Act 2010. ii Executive summary The purpose of this background paper is to present an evidence base to inform future integrated transport planning in Hobsons Bay. Background Council released the Hobsons Bay Integrated Transport Strategy in 2006. More recently, consultation has identified ‘access to transport’ as an ongoing issue, particularly in neighbourhoods with limited transport options and high car dependency. In response to these concerns, Council committed to commence the development of an Integrated Transport Plan in 2014, with the first step being to develop a background paper. This background paper reinforces the need for long term strategic planning to coordinate Hobsons Bay’s interrelated transport modes into an integrated system. This ‘network approach’ is underpinned by a sustainable transport hierarchy that prioritises active, public and freight transport, while encouraging reduced private car use. Integrated transport planning can
