Meeting Whitsunday Shire Library at Centro, Cannonvale, 7 pm Thursday November 1
Whitsunday Shire Council this week announced it is undertaking planning for a Bridle Path in
the Sugarloaf and Riordonvale area.
The proposed Bridle Path consists of a series of inter-linked circuit tracks, connecting with
Turner Road at the northern end and Gregory-Cannon Valley Road at the southern end.
Acting Chief Executive Officer Phillip Holloway said it is envisaged that the path would be
used by horse riders and pony club members, however there may be other potential users.
“We need to hear the views of local residents and potential users of this trial system,” Mr
Holloway said.
“It is vital we understand our citizens ideas, concerns and aspirations to ensure the path
meets community needs,” he said.
Council has commissioned consultants ROSS Planning Pty Ltd to produce a Master Plan for
the path.
The resulting Bridle Path Master Plan will consider a mix of facilities to encourage and
support use of the area by the wider Whitsunday community, reflecting the natural and rural
setting in which the Path will be located.
Council welcomes any interested residents to attend a community workshop to be held on
Thursday, 1 November at 7pm at the Beach Library, Centro Shopping Centre.
