[bikeqld] Breakfast creek onwards?

[Michael Yeates]

Anthony,

Assuming it will be easy to get to the new cycle parking facility at 
the RBH, then it is a road and/or footpath route from there to 
Newstead via OConnell or Campbell Streets to Montpelier with traffic 
lights at each intersection across Breakfast Creek Road into Newstead.

However don't expect much in the way of cycling facilities until 
after the tunnel and Airport Link projects are completed ... if then.

There is also a route from Albion over the overpass then along 
Sandgate Road on the northern side of Breakfast Creek either (i) to 
near the Breakfast Creek Hotel then across the creek there and into 
Newstead or (ii) to under the Valley Bypass where it crosses the 
creek where the road also crosses the creek to the southern side into 
Mayne then via Thomson and Edmonstone to Breakfast Creek Road and 
then into Newstead.

These are "missing links" at present and show up on the following map 
as "black holes" having NOTHING at both Newstead and at Hamilton on 
the following map ... but optimistically will no longer be missing 
links once the roadworks are completed ... see

Seems like a reasonable question for you to ask Cr Jane Prentice BCC 
Chairperson for "Active Transport".
