Bayside City Council recently approved tenders from Australian Project Solutions and MBH Constructions for the construction of the shared path at Middle Brighton.
Construction of the “missing link” is expected to begin in February 2005 and be completed by mid 2005. This will finalise the Bay Trail from Altona to Beaumaris. Work includes ‘on ground’ and elevated components that will run from Middle Brighton Baths to Bay Street, Brighton. It will provide safe “off-road” access for use by everyone including pedestrians, disabled people, skaters, people with prams and cyclists. Funding from Council and the State Government will enable Australian Project Solutions to construct viewing decks, seating, lighting along the path and some landscaping. It will also allow MBH Constructions to renourish the beach with more sand following the creation of artificial reefs just north of the Middle Brighton Baths. The Bay Trail is one of the most popular shared paths of the entire metropolitan network. Some preliminary establishment works may commence on the site in mid-January 2005.
