The ULDA (means something in jargon to planners, I think it is the state gov preferred plan before developers get to have conversations with governments to get the public bits reduced) for the RNA zone 2a Showgrounds calls for (page 28, Section 3, Precinct 2a):
10m wide active transport corridor connecting O'Connell Tce to Bowen Bridge Road (the SUP cycleway? behind Bowen Park?
, O'Connell Tce to Gregory Tce and 
Improved passive oversight of Bowen Park
Up to 4m widening of O'Connell Tce (to accomodate busway & cyclists/peds)

This could mean a 10m wide ped/cycleway along the RNA side of Bowen Park (there is no mention of retaining the RNA wall at this location which is probably significant as the RNA walls on Gregory Terrace are explicitly mentioned for retention.

Plans for the Bowen Hills Rail station area also call for improved ped/cycle connections in the area of Abbotsford Rd. This could mean the SUP continued over Abbotsford Road in a bridge (like that already over the rail line).
