Have your say on the Queens Avenue cycling corridor

We want your feedback on two options proposed by the Level Crossing Removal Project (LXRP) for a cycling corridor along Queens Avenue. The works are part of the Glen Huntly Level Crossing Removal Project.

The LXRP is building the new cycling corridor connection between Glen Huntly and Caulfield and has asked which option Council prefers.

The LXRP has put forward two options along Queens Avenue:

  • a three-metre-wide shared use path on the racecourse side of Queens Avenue, which requires the removal of more than 200 existing trees, with new trees and plants to be substituted; or
  • a separated on-road bike path along the racecourse side of Queens Avenue, which requires significantly less tree removal but removes parking from the eastern side of the road.

To inform its recommendation to the LXRP, Council wants your views before Council decides its recommendation when it next meets on Tuesday 6 February 2024.

You can read more about the options and have your say via our community survey at: www.haveyoursaygleneira.com.au/queens-ave

Please note that the survey closes 12pm on Monday 29 January, so please share your thoughts as soon as you can.

Information webinar

You are also invited to attend a webinar Council is hosting from 6.30pm to 7.30pm on Wednesday 24 January. The webinar is designed to give you more information regarding the LXRP’s plans and to answer your questions.
